    A Man, The Devil, and God

    The death of the reciprocal
    I reach a pinnacle of imbecile
    A few years ago, and I mean in the literal
    Was pitiful in mythical proportions
    Knowing the eventual residual emotions
    That would erode my soul in slow torment
    Boughs disposed my ambition from my reason
    To every event there is a time and is a season
    Chronologically I logically needed lesions
    Legions of reason to inveigle a better harvest season
    My mind was wheedled to believin legalistic reason
    Treason against Him, but the heathen within refused to repent
    And my soul’s slow roll to the black hole wouldn’t relent
    I prayed to men, not the Lord and Saviour of them

    It was the money, since cents made sense
    In a life where there’s only popper and prince
    No proper dimension for median ascension
    And since you’re either the sacrifice or sacker
    In a lynchin’…best to be the lynchpin
    A sinister sinecure, when the minister’s miniature
    To my cerebral cortex, preachin was out of context
    My mind was in the Adiron-Dex, compassion was next
    To succumb to duress, suppressed by the mess
    A melding of confused reality an’ sinning and vex
    Lucifer’s nest became my preference to rest
    And Devil’s pie to subside my hungry eyes
    Gluttons of immoral imagery, a sinful synergy
    Of shared energy between a mortal and the Enemy

    My enmity for sympathy, it brewed into epiphany
    A symphony, initially a sinner sinning swimmingly
    But became an unbridled demonic empathy
    A human sidled with denial, bore a new demonic entity
    A soul defiled by its trials more than two ironic entries
    Been centuries, since a being pleased the Devil’s dreams…

    But the romance was parasitic…at first I was committed
    Satiated by the radiated rage but I was a rat in a maze
    I just got more cheese along the way, kept me in a daze
    In a haze of supposed payment for adorning Satan’s raiment
    Dancing with the Devil on a floor that was not level
    Tilted towards Hell only time remained ‘til I fell
    And was devoured by the Coward, placed into a cell
    A challenge to his power…but I wasn’t evil…well…
    It was something far worse in his mind…
    I was a being of the most dangerous kind…

    I chose to deny God…at a time of confusion
    Satan pounced on the moment of disillusion
    Intrusion to perpetuate the illusion of reprobate
    As descriptive of my future fate, all God did was wait…
    Damien had seen the gradients of my increasing placement
    In the hierarchy of beings in the final battle scene
    Obscene visions to his eyes surprised the One of Pride
    God described something to him that left him in fright
    Satan tried to divide my life from the Christ inside
    Satan had seared my vision with sin and made me blind
    It worked for a time…but God finally cleared my eyes
    I realized…the futureless pursuits in my sight…blight
    Is all the Devil is, a night to day, to calm, a fray, to love, a hate…
    To the healthy, a hunger intended to emaciate…

    I rejected the Devil…
    And I retreated to this place where I presently reside
    And I examine the contents of my mind, I just think
    About how my God brought me from the very brink
    Of destruction; it’s really amazing when I think of it
    But, I have to prepare and train for the coming battle
    The signs are evidence that it is fast approaching, so
    I am on my toes, and on the edge of my seat, excited
    Never allowing myself to feel fear, I know He’s here
    He calms my spirit and makes me as the cool water
    Serene as the greenest pastures, restoreth my soul
    His hand of protection comforts me, in his grasp
    Is where I stand and where I wait for His plan
    To be executed…I am a disciple, He is my Lord
    The shepherd I shall I not want…but I the sheep
    Demure to His power…So shall it be written…

    So shall it be done…

    sublime quick question. how long did it take you to write this? becuase this was amazing. i will nominate it for the top ten. your rhyming was on point as well as the content and vocab. this is a stunning piece. i think this is probably the best i have ever read from you.
    "My enmity for sympathy, it brewed into epiphany
    A symphony, initially a sinner sinning swimmingly"

    that was my favorite part. amazing what more can i say. great piece.

    please return the favor on hooked on sorrow

    A Very Deep Piece Of Literature ,a Nice Variety Of Vocabulary.
    I Really Like How It Captivates Me Cuz I Could Really Relate 2 What Your Saying. This Piece Is Incredibly Ingenious, Nicely Layed Out. A Outstanding Piece Of Work That Talks About Trial And Error

    Just Remember In This Life Always Know Where Your Going But Never Forget Where U Came From. I Ride Wit God Till My Dying Days.

    Return Tha Favor And Check Out My Posting On Open Mic. Peace

    Good Shit Man.

    Vocabulary was excellent as was the flow. Most people fail to mix both in the same rhyme. Also, I Like the whole idea... Had me readin it through to the last line. Keep this shit up.

    you can tell your mom started to argue with u...

    as already stated, that was some amazing shit being thrown down. you could shred a beat to pieces with everything but tha end, and everything that makes shit excellent was in it. alliteration really impressed me... anyone can think of a few words that start soundin tha same, very few can make great multies with different alliterations. hot homi

    please return tha favor and hit aint no love

    Nice drop man, but I didn't like ya structure, made the flow a bit shoppy and slightly streched in certain places, but overall, nice drop.
