As you lay sleeping peacefully in bed
While you are dreaming; sweet dreams in you head.
I watch you in slumber with eyes filled with love
It’s a love that’s so rare so few even know of.

The faith of the corps, is its fidelity

And all through the hood
The dealers were selling
All the drugs that they could.

But through the pen of a poet, they suddenly change.
Put down on paper, those simple words can convey
A thought, vision or desire, while describing a day.
