they said i did what

THEY SAID I DID WHAT
BY NA'SHON SYMIAN KEMP

I use to be happy but then I realized true happiness died.
Somewhere along the line between my broken heart and that destroyed dream.
But oh well mama use to say things ain't always what they seem.
To bad people ain't always that clean.
Throw they hate at you then call you gritty.
Throw they dirt at you then ask why you been acting shady lately.
Is it me or is the world just spiraling of its axis lately.
I ain't take no pills or drink any acid lately.
So am I looked at like I'm high or batshit crazy.
Everyone throwing lies.
Trying to slander my name.
Well I'm letting go the ties. 
And ima let it all burn up in flames. 
I tried my best to ignore the cause.
But I must speak up and air out a resolve. Because this school had been trying me lately.
Your mind games don't work so quit it that bell had rung.
And tell me this why cut down an Apple tree before it's first fruit has sprung.
Think about it.
Trying to stop the process. 
But you don't know that I'm reluctant to keep my conscious about it.
So I tap my chest and start a conference. without you. 
You try do hard to throw your darts.
But tell me where you aiming lately.
You try to not show it but I can tell.
You been sidetracked lately.
And you can try to do your best to make me sound crazy 
but I got half a mind and no heart.
So you can already tell I'm heartless baby.
No yes no's or maybes. 
You the reason why so don't try to hide in them weeping willows baby.

Try to catch me in a lie when I spit the truth so you tell me whose lying.
Trying to trip me like I'm running from the truth but I'm walking with it so tell me whose flying.
Your premise is to be meddlesome and troublesome like Dennis.
But to me your no menace. 
Not to me anyway.
Your whole reason for being is to enlighten and brighten.
And to lead to achievement. 
But lately you been dragging and ragging
And bringing people to bereavement. 
Paying for my education. 
or so I thought it looks like I'm really paying for some FUCKED UP MISTREATMENT. 
Now I don't get violent and rowdy. 
But with my words I can become a ROWDY REBEL. 
When it comes to words I own them so stepping to me is like an Obama joke. 
Pointless it won't change or effect a thing except everyone's perspective of yourself.
Get that.
Take this. 
I mean what I write.
A knife to a neck. 
What the heck---no hell is your problem
If you believe this.
Draw the line then another now run to California and draw another.
Leave the country to Israel.
That's how far over you went. 
So far that your trying to draw up accusations and statements that Is Real.
But it's not they fake. 
So I REBEL against it take this as my statement take any longer then the supreme court will be revealed up in this. 
Not a threat it's a warning cuz I will sue.
{Brown vs Wade but bring it to this day}
Just like we all eventually die.
So please don't make a nigga cross his t's and dot his i's. 
I'm not a racist but I can see you got your hand in that jar so have fun.
Let's see just how far your car will run with no gas, electric or oil.
Call bp tell them your bs.
They got another mess this time it's on our soil.
