...FWTL Finals, We Agreed To Make It a Collab. .



Bob Afett

Life on the street is hard,
he'd love getting a Penny for his Thoughts
but his only Window of Oppourtunity
is the hole in his cardboard box.
See, Jasons homeless. .
his eyes red and his clothes are torn
and Home Sweet Home
is the cold floor of a shop porch.
Once more he sits to ponder,
how his life got so screwed
in a constant state of: Heads - You Win,
Tails - I Lose.
Failure doomed his future,
forced him to retreat to the streets
He lost his mom to cancer
and his job in the same week.
now his brains weak from the drugs he's taking,
but this should be excused,
for He Has Nothing,
therefore he Has Nothing to lose. .

See there's a hole in my heart.. There's been a hole from the start..
something missing from the mix.. something broken apart..
a pain that's laced it's way into every angle..
like roots from oak trees.. splayed as they strangle..
choking thoughts of happiness... and holding me down..
I try to smile every day.. but it results in a frown..
My retrobution a polution.. synaptic blast from the past..
original sin taking it's win.. promoting death in my path..
seperation anxiety.. inside of me grows..
the only solution lay displayed.. on calvary's road..
they way his blood flowed.. and the cross that he carried..
lay the bridge to lie betwixt eternal life and me buried..
I've wandered too long in darkness.. now I'm seeking the light..
Cursed too many concepts.. now I'm speaking what's right..
purposed to be dishonest.. now upon this I'm breaking..
his outstretched palms the only balm.. that my wounds could be taking...
the healing salve is like a bath.. washing clean all my woes..
bringing me to want to sing.. and share this thing with my foes..
I started this as a grave.. nothing inside of me grew..
He asked for "nothing".. so I gave.. cuz I had "Nothing" to lose!

Trap

nothing to gain & nothing to lose,
i've seen many families go through the years of abuse,
with nothing to prove,
lets re-trace the faces in pain,
so we'll never have to see 'em again,
never again,
our sons & daughters lead like lambs to the slaughter,
with their mothers tryna make it as martyrs,
nothing to offer,
why even bother ? its like they've been left on the shelf,
its a, subtle reminder just to go for delf,
roll with yourself, fa sho i've been dealt,
some wrong cards,
but baby girl you need to reach for the stars,
and live large ...
8th of May, i remember it like it was yesterday,
low-life with a low-end job, heart full of dismay,
but it didn't have to end this way ...
i could've, got it together - stayed for her birthday,
but after bottles of booze & stuck singing the blues,
i left my, daughter and wife ... damn, nothing to lose ??????

Dope Dave

I lay in a place with total darkness
Isolated and wonderin where the stars went
All I do now is sleep but no dreams
When in the past I would attempt to accomplish by all means
I could picture success like it was on a big screen
All my feelings are gone and I can't even remember what a kiss means
Everytime I try to sit up I hit my head and collapse
And there's a serious stench in the grass
I'd shed a tear but my eyes have dried
And now I regret the fact I never cried
You appreciate something until it's finally gone
Go for what you need more than.. what you want
I never thought a few weeks ago would be my last night
I met a mad guy and got into a really bad fight
Never got a chance to tell anyone good bye
As I got so injured by it.. that I died
Everythings gone and although I hate that truth
But I don't have to panic now..
Cause now, I've got nothing to lose

Sween

hidein in the shadow's..my presance is horrid
I was once a hero ..my intensions were solid
In my possesion..i welded the fate of mankind
A jewl so flawless..it's shine was know to blind
It was mine..all mine, no one could take it away
My mind was corupted..by its side i would stay
But the day finaly came..my house was raided
It was them..my mind instantly filled wi hatred
fightin for my jewl,I could'nt give in at all cost's
& I failed..inside i cryed..my precious i had lost
Then all was blank..a space of my life unexplained
I could hear voice's,one spoke 'sorry for the delay'
I felt my arm's been pulled..along a dark hallway..
I entered a room..& people were stood before me
Where was i?but then i reconised a face it was him
& i stood there..all eye's on me..face's turned grim
I cant remember much more,was i denyed my sanity
The only word's i remember were declarin incapacity.
'case 107, peter sweeney was declared on the news
The jewl was in his mind..really he had nothin to lose'
