Like Father; Like Son

Oceanic eyes pave a path through stone
From scraped out flesh to broken bone
Never fathomed the things that you were shown
Look at me now, how much I have grown

I bet you're kicking yourself in the face
"How could I have let him get out of this place
God damn, he's such a f*****g disgrace"
You're getting old, man, pick up the pace

How does it feel like to be kicked while you're down?
Through my words and my fists, you will inevitably drown
Now it's you that will get slapped and beat around
You're dead to me, b***h, so put on a burial gown

It was you who filled my soul with hate
F**k that! I never had a soul to create
You took that from me, along with my fate
Look me over now, b***h, we can relate

Just close your eyes, hope and wish for the best
You believe in God, so don't worry, you're blessed
I hope you feel it as I steal the heart from your chest
Don't worry, you and I share the same request.

But we're so similar in ways you'll never see
I never hated you, and that's the key
When I look into the mirror, I'm never free
Because I see you so deep in-f*****g-side of me

How about this, I'll put everything aside
I'll put it all away, then commit murder-suicide.
Taking you first, b***h, along with your pride
Open your mouth; down a spoonful of cyanide

It's over now, I think my work here is done
I had a great time, it's been a lot of fun
But I'm sure I could certainly be outdone
So I won't stop, the psychosis has only begun

umm I like the poem I just have somehting to say about the author's note: I don't think it should be a rap. it has a lot of soul and deepness and I think it's just fine as a poem. But by all means turn it iinto a rap, I can't tell you how to write your work or what o do with it. just simply suggesting that it is amazing as a poem and My personal opinion is to leave it as a poem and not a rap. okay. well great writting.
