"Too Late To Get Her Back"

"Too Late To Get Her Back"
By Arcassin Burnham


The moon looks nice and the stars gleam bright
just as young as the night,
like the angels that appear in front of a fight,
for the wrong things in this cruel world that we spite,
rush the wind off a bike,
when a boy loves a girl he gives his all,
Every man in the world don't have bad tendencies,
Like a stand-up or a missed call,
and now the girl you had thinks you cheated while you stand tall,
head high,
love the person you are so you laugh and say bye,
tears fall down as she runs then she sighs,
if you think you were asshole then,
you trying be compassionate is a nice damn try,
now why'd you let her go? all she did was argue with her mother
in a broken home with an abusive step-dad in a ghetto neighborhood
where taxes break everybody down, nothing ever happens but shootings
up in the south zone,
did you dismiss all the bruises that her step-dad was giving her?
how about the time when her mother drove her to school
and did coke in the parking lot like it was okay for her,
Everybody knows your a cheater,
so what you got to hide besides the gonorrhea that you transmit to
every girl you had sex with,
Boy I'm glad she didn't catch it,
thinking , that if she did you were gonna catch an ass whooping.

"Thanks For Happiness"

Soon enough,

When the wind blows soon,

In all its Glory and all it's Faith.

Apocalypse,

When it happens,

Where do we go?

Yeah pretty soon,

The'll be men coming to,

Take you out of town.

A light ahead awaits and waits for no man just to be found.

Waits for no man,

When love is around,

That's why we cheat and we lose our crowns,

Keep your guard up in this savage town,

There's gonna be a whole lot of people fallen down.

Prayers are to the people out on the street,

With at least no minimum wage and ain't got nowhere to sleep,

Not Judging by the action but the company you keep,

Judging on how harsh it is , you'll be lucky to speak.

I feel for joy , Happiness , redemption , relief , clarity , empathy , spirituality,

In the lords arms.

"When It's Time"

*Don't you say that Love's the only thing you're looking for*,

*Trying to claim you know me, when I don't have your number anymore*,

*Don't you say you know my name when you forgot me awhile back*,

*Confusing my brain don't try to throw me off track*,

*Sort of like an outcast where you and your friends didn't wanna be*,

*Bullied by the same old kids in school*,*they couldn't handle me*,

When it was time,

I got tired of the old shit and made it new every time,

Use to make Love to a chick that never claimed that she was mine,

Bad days in past,

And future past days will fade away,

I'll live my life how I want , til it's time to pass away.

*Don't you smile in my face and say it's byegones*,
*Symbolically so inclined to turn trust to stone*,
*I feel so bad for the normal​ kids that stay the quiet ones*,
*Cyber attacking on social media thinking it's fun*,
*You play with someone's life*,*that's on your hands*,
*Nothing you can do*,
*You should have already grown up into a man and paid your dues*,
*I don't know how long I've made it in this condition now*,
*I should have done right in life and would have lived it down*,

When it was time,

I got tired of the old shit and made it new every time,

Use to make Love to a chick that never claimed that she was mine,

Bad days in past,

And future past days will fade away,

I'll live my life how I want , til it's time to pass away.

"Thing (No More Friends)"


Heaven knows,
My struggles and my agonies.
Heaven knows,
My struggles and my agonies.

Loneliness and focusness provokes thought,
Sweat on your face for the friends that you sought,
Don't spend the rest of your life in a box,
Looking for love in the wrong places need to stop,
It's so easy to fit in with people like you,
Ain't a time for wishing and hoping a virtue,
Boyfriend's and girlfriends that'll​ straight hurt you,
It'll be a second when your world ends turning you so cruel,

I just say just don't hang with people that peerpressure and leaves you out
High and dry,
If trust is trust and fake is fake , they must be synthetic to what they think is
Your demise,
If it's not one thing then it's definitely another but the first thing's a lil' more
Dangerous,
There is so much fake in the world they might just sacrifice your body and
Just come up famous,

So who needs friends?
Might be the Devil in the disguise,
Might be an under cover cop,
Turn on you in the blink of an eye.

"Eye Catchers"


Dropping like seagulls in the sea,
people are dying everywhere help us please,
suspicions about the world since seventeen,
I never had a dad around , can't control me.

while all the girls,
while all the girls,
don't see reason.
while all the boys,
while all the boys,
don't like being told what to do.
*And all the eye catchers* , *they walk around without being noticed*.
*you better take someone's hand in desperate need and say what you* *have spoken*,
*And all the eye catchers*,* pretend like the world revolves around* *them*.
*Theres always something in this world that is worth living for but you* *gotta live for them*.

Spare me the ignorance if you please,
i never conquered a problem just with ease,
interest in words stem from the giving tree,
I'm not a violent person just don't judge me.

while all the girls,
all the girls,
don't see reason.
while all the boys,
while all the boys,
don't like being told what to do.
*And all the eye catchers* , *they walk around without being noticed*.
*you better take someone's hand in desperate need and say what you* *have spoken*,
*And all the eye catchers*,* pretend like the world revolves around* *them*.
*Theres always something in this world that is worth living for but you* *gotta live for them*.

"It Was Over"

"It Was Over"

by Arcassin Burnham

Too young for the devil's nectar, don't worry I hate it anyway,

selfish pain overwhelms me plenty

to get that chance to stay,

inside the dark corridors of 

my mind i can't obtain,

to find a different love,

gone for hours as a way to hide my shame,

it was all over once you got to me,

and it was all over from the start,

it was all over once my life got crushed,

is it too late to fix my heart,

i found a way to get to my destination,

writing my life in an illustration,

it was all over,

i'm saying it was over.

"It was okay for awhile".

"Figured Out"

 
"Figured Out"

By Arcassin Burnham

I hope the men don't run off and try to see the fear in others,

Hope the women don't gossip like they don't have a care for others,

I hope the kids in school don't have agendas just to pick on others,

This world literally crazy,protect your sisters and brothers,

Putting your damn videos on Worldstar just to see someone bloodier,

Do we really wanna be seen in the history books as histories most violent

Country?

Now come on guys everybody and their mama knows that this country is

Built off money,
a socially awkward economy,

that tells you to obey their policies,
the justice system , are you blind to see,
they kill for no reason , we run out of peace,
as a black man you can't on your two feet,
without getting cascaded with bullets,
whatever hope we get or had in the past just know they're the ones
that took it.

"Mr. Mister"

"Mister Mr."

By Arcassin Burnham

Mister Mr. Spare me the cheap talk and all

Of the schemes, 

I'm not amused by your dilemma of sneaking 

Behind scenes, 

I'm just waiting for all of these nightmares to

Turn into dreams,

The problems will occur wherever you are by

All means,

I'm glad to be a teacher,

I hate to be learning, 

While gravity is holding us down, 

Inside we're burning, 

So I lock myself in a freezer to prevent being grilled,

Didn't ask to hear about your gossip,

Please save me the grief.

I'm glad to be a teacher,

Mister Mr. 

"Mister Mr. i'm talking about is actually satan, And he Won't get the best of me and if your careful , then you could block him too".
