Free
I free myself from all bondage
I free myself from all confusion
I free myself from the things I don't understand
Only to gain understanding
I release everything suppressed inside of me
In order for the rage to subside in me
Born into sin, we as men
Destroy what is sacred
Only to replace it with material
Losing valuable minerals
I free myself from all the sins of men
In order to fly again free.

Freedom Fighters
I took an oath in the spirit before I came to the flesh
Never to regress becoming less
I took an oath in the spirit before I came to the flesh
Always to uplift righteousness over wickedness
I took an oath in the spirit before I came to the flesh
That if it cost me everything I would still do anything
I took an oath in the spirit before I came to the flesh
That I would fight for freedom, love and happiness
I took an oath in the spirit before I came to the flesh.

Giggles
What gives me the giggles
Is to see my son wiggle
What gives me the giggles
Is to see my belly jiggle
What gives me the giggles
Is good thoughts of the past
When everything was bad
What gives me the giggles
Is young love
What gives me the giggles
Are big kisses and hugs
From those who matter the most
My kids, Daddy loves you.

Gone
They won't get it till I am gone
They won't get it till I go home
Where the wind blows just right
And everything is alright
They won't get it till I am gone
And nothing but the flesh remains
Not even when the flesh returns
To it's rightful owner
Will they get it
Not even when bones remain
To be cleansed by the rains
I shall never feel again
Will they get it
Not even when they look back
At the past to see
What we had
Will they get it
They won't get it till I am gone.
~Knockamechee Pharoh~
Goodbye To The Past
I free myself of all the burdens of the past
For forgiveness I have asked
But not received
On this cold winter's eve I see the truth
Love is unconditional but you hide from yourself
Presenting a mirage to everyone else
But I see you for you
For that is the only way I could effect you in the very core
Ignore all you want but remember this
Judgment comes for all who exist
Exodus is the chapter I give to you
In hope that there will no longer be any bitter fruits.
~Knockamechee Pharoh~
Great Men
I have come to realize
That great men walk alone
In the shadows of their forefathers
Constantly under attack
For the pack made before flesh
Underestimated
Hated for consistencies the represent
Fragile underneath
See how small things make them weep
Gather and protect the sheep
Echoes in their spirit when they sleep
Trading blind obedience
For ultimate faith
Must be great to shed the flesh
Prosper and proclaim righteousness.

I AM
I AM PREPARED TO DIE FOR THE THINGS I BELIEVE IN
TIRED OF HATE AND DEPRESSION
TIRED OF ALL THE GAMES
TIRED OF PEOPLE NOT CALLING ME MY NAME
IF I BRING SHAME
FORGIVE ME OR CONDEMN ME FOR A LIFE OF SIN
BUT THAT MEANS I GET TO COME BACK AND MAKE AMENDS
MAYBE THIS TIME I'LL GET FRIENDS
LIKE ASSATA SHAKUR HAD WHEN
THEY TRIED TO KILL OFF THE TRUTH
BUT GOD BROUGHT HER THROUGH
KNOW THIS, ONLY THE BRAVE WILL SOAR
ONLY THE STRONG SHALL SURVIVE
ONLY THE LION IS KING
AFTER THE ALMIGHTY THAT RESIDES IN THE SKY
I'M PREPARED TO DIE FOR THE THINGS I BELIEVE IN
ARE YOU?
~Knockamechee Pharoh~
Lioness
It's not the lion that does the hunting, bringing back food for the young and the king. It's
the lioness. So when things are rough and at their worse and get dehydrated off of thirst, remember you can bring down an
elephant. Fact, not fiction.

I DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO LIE ANYMORE
I DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO LIE ANYMORE
I LAY MY FEELINGS AT YOUR DOOR
WONDERING WILL SHE PICK THEM UP AND BRING THEM IN
WILL SHE NURTURE THEM BACK TO GOOD HEALTH?
OR WILL SHE PLACE THEM ON A SHELF?
WILL SHE LISTEN TO EVERYONE ELSE?
OR MAKE THE DECISION HERSELF?
WILL SHE FOLLOW HER SPIRIT OR CONTINUE TO ACT LIKE SHE CAN'T HEAR IT?
I DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO LIE ANYMORE
SO I WILL TELL YOU I LOVE SLEEPING ON THE BEACH FLOOR
I WILL TELL YOU I LOVE LAZY DAYS, CUDDLING AND KISSING AS WELL AS INTIMATE THINGS
I WILL TELL YOU THE CLOSEST THING TO HEAVEN ON EARTH IS YOU
I WILL TELL YOU THAT FOR ME THERE COULD NEVER BE ANOTHER YOU
I DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO LIE ANYMORE
I CAN'T GET OVER YOU, MI AMOR.
~Knockamechee Pharoh~
I FINALLY GET IT
I FINALLY GET IT
I KNOW WHAT I AM
WHAT I MUST DO
WHERE I AM GOING
I FINALLY GET IT.
