Final Run

Im at the end and yet still I see no signs of victory within
Maybe it is Defeat that is waiting for me At The end
This is it I can barely go on like this struggle & gasping for air
I dont see my completion or my place rest...but yet its there
if its not in the past & not in the future how is it present?
These question got me pondering and answers im guessing
Hold off on the delays I can Finaly See my mark of Prize
My place of strength and my place of rest but yet... Surprise
I Open my eyes only to see the harsh and cruel real vision
I was headed in the wrong direction my senses were missin
This was a time of prayer so I feel down on my bending Knee
And I began to Beg the God above for his merciful Peace

Then The Sky was Broken and I seen My ending Place
My Final run Was over Thanx to God's Wonderful Grace

Nelson Mandela 04-14-05 03:21 PM

Final Run:
*Slave: We have to do something brothers im tired of...*

Generations of hurt faces, painfully patient, jus waiting
for eyes of hatred to realize slaves are mistaken
tried escaping, but the death toll remains steadily updatin
*This is it our final run, rise with thy heart not thy fist*
one last chance at freedom spoken with words of truthful meaning
our final run even those whose life is yet to begun.soul leakin,still leading
holdin, the torch to light the way for those even blinded by greed
even though working on plants doesnt give us food for the mouths we feed
last shot to cease the deadly risk we take to survive this state of time
our state of mind is set abroad the faithful shine from eyes
of the honestly forgiving, unsinningly fufilling this final rise
mistreated,beated abused and left bleedin,die from feeling
souls risin through the ceiling,screamin 4 emotional healing

*Holds the torch high to lead the way for the next generation*

This was feedback posted for Nelson Mandela
 
Beautiful piece, your approach of the topic was so powerful and strong. You found an excellent balance in your vocab, not too basic and yet not too complex. The imagery was amazing, you managed to paint a great picture of the situation. The emotion was so pure, so raw. Flow was coo as well as structure. I just like how you worded everything, you have a very nice writing style. One of my favo lines was this: "*This is it our final run, rise with thy heart not thy fist*"

Great piece!

Emotion- Coo man i felt the Emotion in this verse, str8 up good.

Vocab-Upp your vocab man, so it'll make you verse decent.

Imaginary- YOU had a hella good imaginary my friend keep that up

Concept- I think you should've approach the topic more different, not ZOOM into the story that quick.

But this a good drop, good flow, with good imaginary. Upp your vocab and your emotion A little. But i think you got this battle. G-luck on the polls

Vote= Mandela
reason being... his verse stood out to more cuz i can relate to it... i was feeling his topic more although neither were that creative. i would've liked to see more of a slave dialect in Mandela's piece that would've given it a touch of Creative Dopeness. as for Stanza i didnt like his whole story telling aspect. i felt he could've been more discriptive mor vivid. his vocab lacked aswell. it would've brought the piece out more.

damn....this is a hard one to call................

stanza...........ure shit flowed well playa.......lines seem stretched cuz of BIG text....i still am baffled as to why people do this.........anyway, u stayed on topic all the way through....a lot of feeling and emotion in ya drop.......delivered a sort of imagery to the thoughts n shit....a short topical when put against some i've seen which i like cuz it is too the point and effective....u didnt drag it on tryin to squeeze as much in as possible....ya vocab was nice, a couple of multies in there to....overall 7.5/10

nelson.....another gud drop.....strucutre was aight, not as tight as stanza and that is why his flowed better....u stayed on topic to and i liked ya approach to the topic....ya dropped a nice verse with feelin to.....had similar affect to stanza's with the imagery shit.........ya idea was good, vocab was nice and shit but i jsut think that stanza's flowed better and that is why i enjoyed his that little better...overall 7/10

V/ - stanza

i'll start with mandela's verse......nice multi's used but i felt that it lacked complexity and that because of the structure your flow was off.....but nice concept used......

stanza verse i enjoyed more.....he came complex with it and the vocab usage was real nice....flow was smooth....my vote goes to him

meh, i liked stanza's verse more....i liked his angle at the topic better, yours was good nels, but i felt you put most of your verse into capturing emotion, not imagery, and stanza did both pretty well.....so im giving it to him.......nels, you had some nice multies though, structure was off though, stanza, not a bad, short verse, enjoyed it, keep up
