    Sky's The Limit.

    As the minutes pass,
    He draws on his notebook in his physics class.
    They’re all taking a test, but he has finished fast.
    Now his thought distorts looking thru the tinted glass.
    Past the court towards the field of minted grass…
    Still moist from the old sprinklers’ vintage splash.
    His thinker’s voice is fast, as ideas are flashed before him.
    And the choice to explore them…
    Is only to contrast the boredom.
    So as he starts to sort’em, he begins to really day dream…
    About the different ways he can possibly make cream.
    The first is a team,
    Of course he’d be the highest paid & play quarterback.
    He’d have it made…
    The bitches, the endorsements… Yeah, all of that.
    Or maybe…
    He’d get called for tracks… & be a super producer for allllll the acts.
    And leave Kanye & Timbo in limbo with his wall of plaques.
    Or maybe…
    He could become a rapper… with all that “Gun Clapper” yap, Or….
    Maybe he can be an actor… And star in some of those hero flicks
    Or a comedy with Joe Peci and get those Denero chips.
    Or maybe, just maybe.. he can hit the lotto...
    Live in a mansion and pop bottles in the gratto…
    With a bunch of dimes and a lot of hot models…

    “That would be hot yo!!”

    He thought to himself, not knowing he spoke out loud
    Or that the teacher heard him & kids turned around
    And now, everyone stared at him like he was dumb
    Since the test was over and the lecture'd begun
    But he wasn’t done dreaming to realize it’s finished
    So he continued to reach like the sky’s the limit
    For a minute…
    Till he was startled by a sound intended to be loud

    And the teacher yelling:

    “Pay attention!!! Get your head out of the clouds!!

    Day Dreamer.

    damn....i actually started to write somehting similar b4 while i was in school...not as vivid just scribblin boredom...but anyway this was hot...the imagery was off the wall, the flow was good as well as the rhymes themselves, i hate seein words that rhyme but the syllables dont match...you didnt have that, goodshit...

    Re: Sky's The Limit.

    very solid drop

    i like how you contrasted the title and protagonist's ambition with a kindof mundane, dull setting that everyone can relate to

    you flow pretty smoothly throughout though it seemed a little choppier when you kept using or during the daydream(s)

    you use some pretty clever transitions as the kid comes out of the daydream (hot yo sounds maybe a tad unrealistica little crude but it works) and especially revealing the picture you wrote your topic too-which seemed perfect for it

    well done and if you could give some feed on the OM in my sig that'd rock

    Re: Sky's The Limit.

    This was a good piece. My favorite part was easily the beginning - you had a very natural word choice, which made it easy to read and cohesive. The content in the piece was good because it seemed to match the thoughts your character was having - it seemed like it could've been a dream. Not much more to say, it was interesting.

    Re: Sky's The Limit.

    I loved the idea and concept behind this. it's a very relatable topic, to which just about anyone can find a piece of themselves within. I liked how the flow, whether intended or not, was very light and airy. it almost created that bright blue sky and perfect picture-esk cloud puff atmosphere before we ever saw the image at the bottom. the only thing I didn't always like, was the uber casual language. I mean, it did fit the idea of being relaxed and low key.. but, at times the piece was a little higher intellectually than it was in some other parts. that inconsistancy was the only thing I didn't like about this. nice job man, overall I did enjoy this piece.
