SS Semi-Finals: Daz vs Engivale

Daz's Verse:

Non-Fiction; This is my life.

It's kinda like, she pierced through my darkness with blinding light
So I read between the lines of Webster's to define the sight
her pride was slight and every question's response was trite
Told me strength of character was built upon my might.
Got along iight, but in school I was surrounded with haters & goons
I shined because of her. she was my sun, I chose the way of the moon
Now dope can be weighed on a spoon but addiction is of the soul
My love interstates, I mean to say that it took a toll
It was foretold by the conversations, and trips that we had
That I'd climb the peak of our relationship to get a glimpse of her laugh
Memories past, she was a victim of kisses & hugs deferred
cuz how could she love a man when her father showed no love for her
I was perturbed. It seems she needed a lesson in worth
cupid laced his bow with my heartstring, and arrow'd my affection at her
Thought I could lessen her hurt, thought she was simply confused
She claimed it was completely her, said this isn't a ruse
Said she'd been burned by men so much it just lit the fuse
Of a reaction waiting to happen that would shift her views.
We pick & choose our decisions, but are we controlled by fate?
Why do we risk it all when we already know the stakes?
Maybe because we float on clouds of passion that blows away
I entered her life, but as for her heart, she closed the gates.
Not because some random man ripped off her clothes in rape
But because she dined with destiny and chose her plate.
I wished to expose those fakes, of men who break the heart of the meek
We all have a role. In my life she played the part of unique
Her outside hard as can be, I smoked to flush it away
I saw the world in black & white, meanwhile stuck in the Grey
She said I trust in your ways, I feel exactly the same
But heterosexuality is masochism. It's an attraction to pain
Can you imagine my shame?, I couldn't fathom her claims
How could we both have one track minds with lateral trains?
A wise man once told me insanity becomes foolish
Too much of the same thing and one becomes numb to it
See she was the type to overcome adversity rather then succumb to it
And I realized loving her was wishing bricks to become fluid.

a thousand sorry's cuz i'll never get to touch on your face
Or share in a tender moment while locked in a lovers embrace
That we'll never dance under the stars as I clutch on your waist
Or elevate to higher realms as we puff on the haze
I apologize for the assholes who took you on headspins
And that every path you chose with a man led to a dead end.
That your father wasn't around, but my mother bred men
And I'm sorry that your diamond heart became leaden
And I'm sorry that about the numbness because they weren't treating you right
But you will always be, a part of me, and own a piece of my life.

Insanity is doing the same thing over, expecting different results

The Numbness

Good Luck.

Engivale's Verse:

It's What She Wants...



She wants you watchin' American Idol & The Office,
She wants you watchin' Law & Order but not knowin' what the law is,
She wished you'd eat at Mickey D's and drink Coca Cola,
Watch Unsolved Mysteries then go to sleep when it's over.
She wants you to get married and have a mortgage
And have one kid you can't afford and thinkin' of havin' more kids.
She wants you to get two jobs like Lou Dobbs & die from stress
And if there's some other way --- why haven't we tried it yet?
She wants you to wonder what other people are thinking,
She wants you overeating & smoking and going to bed drinking,
She wants you to hate yourself and compensate by making wealth,
And thinking your headed North when your course is always aiming south...

It's the course that you follow
When you're forced to be hollow,
Your loss now is today's cost is tomorrow.
We're all led on a path
To live regretting our past,
And going through the motions pretending to laugh.
It's like this culture controls us
With hamburgers and cold cuts,
Fashion trends and Jags and Benzes they sold to us.
It's the music we listen to,
And our myspace descriptions, too,
It's this internet generation that has two faces and lives in two
.........Worlds at once........
We're comfortable in one and not the other ---
Because we'd rather not be face to face when we call eachother brother...
That's just the sad truth,
You're pissed and I'm mad, too,
If I could rap I'd do it live - but I'm online cuz I'm shy and I have to...
Being cocky's a role reversal,
I just pretend to be controversial,
I'd rather be Engivale, it'd be awful if we got more personal...

She wants you to drink and watch the game with the kids,
She wants you to think every day's not the same when it is...
She makes you try to impress the attractive people,
"Don't look at them, honey, they're ugly and bad and evil!"
She makes you think the system works for you and it's good,
When really it's you that works for it --- when it should -
........Work for you.....
She lets you think that you're fine,
And convinces you with the new clinical shrink that you find,
She thinks that we're blind, But it's not just that ---
We're deaf, dumb and crippled and we still cut back...
She has us fooled, we're all actors on stage,
And we follow the script every flip of the page.
She sold us Liberty, and we bought the procedure,
When we're what makes America - how do we beat her?
