SWAP

I think I wanna rap
About a rapper guy
With whom I swapped
My number for lyrics and stuff
The girl I love
Who showed me how
I can now swap
My sister for plants
My friend who's getting harmed
Forever
With ink inside her back
We swap, we swap,
Money for pain
Money for love
Daddies and sisters for things we like
I keep testing words as I write
Trying to rime
Seeming to rap
They sound in my head
They echo my mind
They bounce in my brain
New styles I'm checking out
And I wonder about fancing stories
Fiction fusing truth and lie
You may think I'm crazy
I'm sorry
But words just scatter through the space between my ears that is called mind
As I think
As I walk
Yesterday's resounds of my inner voice
Insist to whisper me aloud
"Someday I'll bite you so tenderly
I'll make you cry
I'll pulverize all your beauty inside
Until it's spread and smashed all our world around"
One of these days
I gotta try a tale
Stop sticking up words
And let imagination grow
Nonesense? Who knows..
I think I'll have to trick my mind
And turn my thoughts
To confuse my words
And not be obvious of what I'm really talking of
If I return to the word
That held this rap
I wonder if there's anyone
Who'd like this bunch of rimes
So as to swap
Now this writing
For a ticket to Panamá
