I have the attention span of a fly
in the night, it's alright
but then you never see me then
so then i'm insane to you.
I got the speech of a jersey girl
maturity of a older girl
voice of a Atlanta girl
and the style of a new york girl
check out my dance moves like i come from Brooklyn
i know you've never seen this
I write my words
that come out my heart, it's absurd.
I wish i'd say i'm perfect
yet obviously that's not my discernment.
I want to show what's right
in my heart, it just seems right
to explain the reason why
you're the way you're you
and the reason i'm left behind.
See inside your eyes
i've come to let it shine
i've screamed into the light
and now It's my time.
Remember my every word
this is a show, that is unheard
never thought i was a poet
but i guess it's what i've been earning.
Jocelyn Gabrielle
My name
is here
no need
to make it disappear
Im here
it's me
so listen
and let me tell you about me.
Im Jocelyn Gabrielle
never fake
oh so real
Do you think it's really different
from the life i'm always living?
I write about
life
Kisses and delight
reading it may seem tight
but hearing me spit my words
is greater than daylight.
I got rymn
with no beat
have a crime
with no weapon
Loving when I step and
Love it when I keep speaking.
The words that are read
are nothing better on the thread
slashes from the invisibility
honey, please
it's humanity.
Abuse is so hidden
it's still harassment
Oh i feel it
don't you understand the tears and
the reasons why I stay sitting?
I don't like to stand up for my country
just sit down on the reality
just sit down in awe, there's no other thing better
than to see it happening.
There's simplicity
to my words
but it's so hard
and absurd.
but please, remember me
remember what you've heard.
