'Hope'


Here's a story of a boy...and at the time broke...
I reached for money to give to leave on a fine note...
But he needed more than that...he needed to see what I know...
But my mind choked at his motionless eyes as I tried to define hope...
So I left...I never gave him a word or a coin...
His tongue was dry and I knew he was thirstin for joy...
I wondered...why I wasn't nursin this boy...
I've come to die and meanwhile search in the void...
What is hope?..It seems like a waste or a black hole...
And if so...is it true that the grave is the last goal?..
Hope is weaved in death...but thats why I hold on...
Cuz in fleeting breath...its all I have to stay strong...
I thought of that boy ever since I've learned this now...
I replay that day in my mind...but I never turn around...
I kneeled in front of him but this time I never froze up...
So I took his hand and showed him what his hope was...
I let him into my soul...hope is the heard and mind...
I led him back into life...hope is the stars at night...
We both start to cry because we now know there's hope in our dreams...
And the river that cleanses us suddenly broke into streams...
This is the song for the hopeless...but what does this anthem give?..
It provides answers to the weary and the dead a chance to live...

it was a clouded horizon and yet the sunshine was showing
fire hydrant open, kids playing with cold water flowing
me and hector in front of the building, observing all else
dealers and gangs not far, but fog hid them from ourselves
all eyes were on the children, theyre so free and non aware
water balloons,blastin music...nowhere near their own despair
theyre sparked with youth they dont know the truth like it or not
then that train of thought empties when i see a car down the block
black all around,tinted windows,broken down rims it was shitty
able to scare off others when it rode slowly through the city
it began slowly making way we stood up we were intimidated
it sped up all screams and running as if we were being raided
we tried to run, we hit the deck and hid behind the other cars
when it was all clear of fear i saw my friend lying on the tar
i found out hes been hit oh shit call the paramedics quick
nah they'll take too long ill drive him now before i regret it
tossed him in the seat ran through red lights at full speed
vision turned blurry and my mind was only swept with memories
hector was my homie for life id die for this kid in an instant
we picked each other up after we've fallen or slipped
its a gift to have him here beside me in my presence
hes not about to leave before we even set precedents
remembering the times we threw fart bombs in food places
and plotted plans to rob candies from stores and escaped it
when we played football in the street,arguments sparked at a tie...
and having to move to the side whenever cars were passing by
and baseball on the sidewalk plastic bat and wiffle ball...
1.00 for the package,those that didnt chip in...well fuck em all
my cousin hit pop ups and they got stuck on the fire escape
hector climbed to get it he became spiderman the great
these shots arent his fate and i know hes stronger then this
these memories clinging to hope that he stays on the survived list
so no name tag on his wrist or sent on a stretcher to the morgue
got to the hospital they took him,so much blood even they not sure
what to do...is he done,NO HES NOT...i told them that
waitin in the lobby prayin to god, on my knees is where i sat
4 hours later, im stressed i cant take it nomore i have to see
whether his monitors lines are flat or through a bag...hes breathing
i thanked the lord swept in tears i cried so much it was hurting
he gave him another chance,a new hope,a new life,a new person.......

Final I found takes this for his imagery and his more followed through concept development. Your flow wasn't to bad either. I also enjoyed yours more, as it provided the better read.

Good drop.

hmmmmm c-bo came ok,but it kinda sounded like a 3rd grader was telling a idiotic story,but the imagery was ok he did have some,its just that id work on your wording alittle bit ok/,the emotion was eh decent man,but overall i wasnt feeling your piece at all,no hate man just elevate a little...and staying in this league will definately help you,so good luck

Final-ur piece was dope,the vocab was quite good,the emotion was raw,and you added a vivd imagery to ur piece which helped understand your take to the topic better,you also had a fgreat storyline,so overall i felt you won this in every category...

props....decent battle

C-bo: nice piece, i felt the it a bit. it was a bit weak as you began to undergo the emotional aspect of the tale, but the rational & logical feelings were included. remebering my own past of neglect, there have been times people gave me hope, so i fully understand that the story his legit. but you only brinked the basic, you didnt cross the norm border. nice work, undoubtedly.

Final: good work, you obviously spent much more time & put twice the effort into your literacy. value of work is important as well as effort. you reached the forty line limit, which tells me you want to be around for round two, your actual piece was good. you have some strong views. i liked the overall picture. congrats.

vote: Final

FINAL gets my vote his flow was good and he made it easier for me to understand you did not do bad also but keep elevating on it and you will be ok. And most of all Final gets this in every catigory.

C-Bo: vocab was okay, nothing too complex or complicated. Flow n structure were good. Emotion was there but i felt like you could've showed a little more, could've gone more indepth in the way you approached the topic, it's like VA said: it looks like you're giving us the basics, maybe even a rough draft of what might turn out to be a really dope and deep drop, ya kno? But it was a good verse nonetheless, just try to make us stand still once in a while to think about something you said...

final: you did a very good job, the vocab was impressive, flow and structure were good. The emotion was there for sure, it seems that you worked hard on this drop and it definately paid off cause it became a wonderful piece of art, storyline was nice too of course...Actually i can't find anything to give bad comment on, solid drop!

Vote goes to final...

v/ Final

C-BO: If you took some time on this piece, it could have been a solid drop. I liked the approach you took, but it just lacked a little bit in all aspects. You got some real potential man, just keep writing.

Final: Nice topical here, I liked the story and it was filled with emotion and imagery. You had me picture the whole scene. Vocab overall was good. Flow lacked a little bit at points but wasn't bad.
