ELYSIAN TEARS
Benny was born at a quarter-to-three
His mother Agatha was a whore-n-a-fiend His father crashed on the way-to-witness, the coroner-deemed That his fate-had-finished, out the door-was-her-dreams To become a great-in-business , she roared-n-she-screamed Her faith-diminished she cursed the lord-while-she-seemed To hate-n-grimace at anyone who passed-by Under the floor-with-her-schemes to rape-the-illness of Ghosts living passed-lives She had to stoop-low-to-earn , for her son to live-a-better-life But got duped-every-turn, no cash, couldn’t give-another-night To a shelter where she was raped, with-a-mugger’s-knife To her throat, till she would bleed-n-repress Begged for a single-time, a nigga wouldn’t need-to-reap-sex She had a dime-to-her-name, she still spared a nickel-quite often, thinking of how she used to plead-fo-free-checks She knew she had-to-escape of this life-so-unfair Tried to run from it all, but her hands tied-to-her-hair Left beaten-bloodied-n-bruised, taken-from-the-streets Filled her with semen-buddies-n-booze , recorded it all to sell to the rapist-industry Amateur porn, as they call it, vaguest-in-the-sheet During-this-time Benny was left-all-alone Maturing-in-time learning about theft-in-the-home Premonition-ability predicting a death-all-alone Life’s demolition-affinity showing-it’s-true-face For he found a piece of chalk-n-a-tube N with it a .44 cocked-n-abused Who’s it belong to? Nobody-knew, and no one will-know But it put a few-holes, in a homies window He eyed it, as your view-goes, he’d highly despite, but life twists-yo So he took it, and fired-off a couple of test-shots, thought he seen satan Neighbours inquired-on n then pressed-on the location But the police were fed-up, of being hated-n-spit-at But they wanted to get the arrests-up, no time wasted-to-spit-gats On that, one died-n-one-did-nearly But only one mom cried-that-night-in-philly N the one who dead got shot by the one who did nearly With the neighbours son’s opitcals-red, and Benny slowly dying In a hospital-bed But only the neighbours mom could-cry cause Benny’s was thrown-in-a-ditch N the whole hood-sighed, for it had happened before, with a nigga named sloan-n-his-bitch But Benny’s mom was breathing, tho she didn’t-want-to Both blamed the cops, Mind twisted-n-screwed, for the harm they had gone-through Later that night, Benny went to an adoption-centre Where you’ll find the sons n daughters of the dead,fiends, n the-common-sinners But they grew a hierarchy, brutal-system with their methods for the low usually-animalistic Benny grew n learned crucial-wisdom, to combat the evil of users, fiends-those-who-are-sadistic A nigga in particular, a motherfucker named-Markus Beat up, Injured n nearly killed, anyone he wanted without a tainted-conscious He knew too much for his age, and grew up with fame-for-his Famous case of dad’s fascination with tape and rape So Markus Raj and tried to escape his fate but his father’s wickedness caught up, beat him so hard he changed-his-face But his appearance wasn’t the only thing left altered Cause his father didn’t realize his son’s soul he had slaughtered So one night, Markus took a knife and murdered him in cold-blood Ran away and tried to join some bold-bloods And they taught him life, from a twisted perspective And sometimes, he wished heat would end it So he could die a quick death and not to become a sick villain But he got caught, cops showed up and he got licked-with-it Became selfish and wicked, even by age not restricted Only 14 at the time, his actions still sickening Got away by listening then chickening Ratted out his whole gang, another chance at life was his prize Cops should’ve seen it, for he had the devil’s soul past his eyes Back to our story of murder rape and allegory Benny saw Markus beating up girls and younger kids But didn’t step in Because not everyone’s meant to be a hero, at least not a direct one anyway Because everyone’s a hero, even villains, in their own way But someone else stepped in, but he got beaten too Markus became the king of the hierarchy, and the chieftain of a crew To make everyone else miserable and live their lives in hell To them sweet revenge not missable, they all hid their knives well One day he started eying a young girl, 4 years younger exact He mentally tortured her, said words I can’t re-enact So Benny went up to her, white girl named-anne, same age 12 Exchanged names of themselves, every day he came-sat Right next to her, mind perplexed at every word Cause like he too, she was born into a life of injustice Lived at the edge of the knife-or-cutlass But what she said after, Benny knew-was-bad Anne’s was a member of the klu-klux-klan Benny was taken aback, he hadn’t taken her for a racist But to him it was only a word, but he couldn’t understand the concept, not in the vaguest Learned it from his Mom’s Ex, but his knowledge was too basic But he knew what the the word-was-revealing Wanted to leave fleeting But the human in him, didn’t want to hurt-her-feelings They seen each other less n less, only an occasional-glance But couldn’t stay separate, navigational-advance They wouldn’t let their influences separate-them Snuck out when things were getting-late-and Talked for hours, relaying-tales-n-some-stories Both relating-not-with-details-but-glory Glory to the fact that they survived what they did. And that they didn’t get indoctrined as kids Eventually respect turned to friendship They’d help each other when the other felt helpless Helped each other grow, and at the age of fourteen A glimpse of hope, a scene that only appears in your dreams Because they turned to love The only thing that matters when shit gets rough So Benny lead Anne to the roof and then took a stance He took her hand and asked for a dance They did for hours, as if struck in a trance N then Benny Decided to make an advance He asked for a kiss, nothing more than this What were you thinking sick fuck? These were just kids! But they did, and temporarily had a moment of bliss Every night they went up and did the same Overcoming race, poverty, and everything in the game But one night, while in a moment of passion The hierarchy made an action, something you wouldn’t expect to happen So remember, never cry Elysian-Tears Entities that can’t harm you are the least-of-your-fears Only worry about niggas that are here-on-the-earth Spiritual Powers are just fear-without-worth But depraved animals are what make you hear-about-hurt To preface my next statement, remember the concrete jungle’s-brutal And when in a confined space? The struggle’s-feudal Remember Markus? Animal Carcass who’se heart’s filled with darkness? Focused on his knife’s sharpness and becoming the hardest? He and his crew rolled to the top, last year in the orphanage. Already inevitably arrested, for multiple unspeakable crime Any ounce of humanity he left on his devilish grind His mind was flowing but his spirit was blind And what his crew did is worse than a pack of rabid-animals They lust for flesh and blood, and moved fast like rapid-cannibals Markus stomped on Benny’s face, until permanent disfiguration Animalistic Inspiration only fuelling their exhilaration They tore off Anne’s clothes, choked her till she couldn’t speak Beat her till she was weak, and blood seeped They tore her up inside, she felt everything burn Not just her body, but her innocence and soul taken, worse than anyone could ever deserve And she cried for god but it was pointless Her screams drowned out by the demons moans so joyous Forced bloody coitus Eventually the cops came again, and arrested them in the act Benny couldn’t scream in pain for an entity of another plane, his fate had been hacked Later that month, Anne killed herself, without looking back So remember, never cry Elysian-Tears Entities that can’t harm you are the least-of-your-fears Only worry about niggas that are here-on-the-earth Spiritual Powers are just fear-without-worth But depraved animals are what make you hear-about-hurt 10 years later, Benny became a famous-rapper, had a twin pair-and-a-wife 2 platinums and next to greatness-after sharing-his-life That everyone who struggled could relate to Major or minor, Nobody could berate or hate it for it was real, not fake or shaped, raw and uncut the facts he would state. Most Disturbing part to Benny? Every industry’s the same For a chance at a penny, anyone takes aim, willing to put a nigga in his grave Even though both worked hard like a slave, because Money’s all they crave. But who can you blame? Big brother set it up that way. But Benny didn’t fall again, all his money he had gave for a better cause Tryna fix society’s flaws. And one day an elderly woman came to him with a stutter Claimed she came from the gutter, a place where justice comes slow Provided details nobody else could know, but what she said made Benny shudder Cause the ragged husk of life in front him was his own mother His heart grew cold but his legs were number Couldn’t decide whether to love her or smother Didn’t know what she sacrificed her life, just for him Frequesnting arrests n sins, but he wouldn’t know, and he wouldn’t understand A mother’s love is only something you can know firsthand But he accepted her into her life, and began to cherish her more They talked about the “perishing corpse Both society as a whole, and the people that they love” No time for gore or war, only love-and-peace Benny had a heart, despite being tough-with-pieces Knew the rich and elite, where the only one who deserved it. And even then choices slim, cause there were some who had earned it. But the night that broke Benny was just a-day-ahead Because everything he even knew was taken-again So remember, never cry Elysian-Tears Entities that can’t harm you are the least-of-your-fears Only worry about niggas that are here-on-the-earth Spiritual Powers are just fear-without-worth But depraved animals are what make you hear-about-hurt A home invasion, Blood Poured-down-her-forehead As Knife Boared-Into-Cortex Sound of bone-crunching Benny lay at home-crutching , his stomach Everything he worked for turned to rubbish. Two deaths-so-inhumane that no words-could-describe it Ending with sweat-n-then-propane, Their bodies then the burning-beside-it A tale with no punchline, no joy, just an abrupt-ending But That’s what usually happens, cause if there’s life’s, you’ll see the corrupt-spreading Sometime you have to face-the-facts that there is no happy finish And that when the darkness fades-to-Black all that can happen has finished So remember, never cry Elysian-Tears Entities that can’t harm you are the least-of-your-fears Only worry about niggas that are here-on-the-earth Spiritual Powers are just fear-without-worth But depraved animals are what make you hear-about-hurt ---------- Post added at 07:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 AM ---------- This is a “freestyle” I made these past two hours. Each verse was a freestyle that I ended with a chorus that stuck with me that I made a few days ago. I made the story up as I went and tried to fit in as many themes/concepts/parallel plots/foils as possible. I decided where to end the verses when I felt they I wanted to switch onto the next aspect of the story @The Saaxxx Baba @Kiwi Peewee @MadVerbs @ Barzooka ---------- Post added at 07:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:41 AM ---------- Also if the rhymings bad, I didn’t want to sacrifice story for rhyming, especially when I was focusing on the story when I made this |
this is gonna take me a day or two prolly to get into the mood to read and drop a valid feedback that justifies the work that you put into to write this.
