son_of_eve Posted June 17, 2003 The idea originated from reading the album reviews in 'The Source' magazine. Gimme my 5 mics Verbally profound How does that sound? Am I a poet or an emcee? No - I'm just son_of_eve Scripting Depicting Stories untold As I teach while the truth is unfold I write because I can Preaching so you all understand My message for the youth My version of the truth Gimme one mic at least Prolific words without a beat As I attempt to bond all my people I keep my message clear and simple I'm not trying to divide or segregate I'm trying to feed you as you contemplate Thought process in constant motion As I spread love like smooth body lotion Challenge me if you will Gimme one mic at least for my creative skill My futuristic rhymes deserve two mics Holding my own opinion and avoiding the hype Not to mention my own creative flow I warned you before I must let them know Rhymes intertwining depending on each scenario Adjusting casually from corporate to ghetto Speed it up a little bit then suddenly take it slow Rhyme-slaying as we both enjoy the change in tempo As I attempt to make it unique I try to represent for my people on the street Three mics just for the versatility Home-grown for the masses plus you and me Switching styles, themes and energy As I slowly increase your vocabulary Spitting issues on consciousness and good old-fashioned love To the greatest Himself, God up above However versatility comes with responsibility Responsibility for the gift presented to me You see I really believe I was born to teach There are issues I need to discuss and people I need to reach Four mics for keeping it real Laying it down and telling you how I feel I believe in God and Jesus His Son I believe in the end we shall overcome I believe He will come back one day Where are you going to be at and will He come round your way? Racism still exists in this world Not everyone believes in nice boys and girls We have grown so suspicious of one another Pre-nuptials and all, see you can't even trust your lover Capitalism I fear will never work Why don't we care whether the world still hurts? I believe the world is undergoing human genocide Why are so many kids committing suicide? See I ask questions most people will I just do it with a certain floetic skill Gimme 5 mics and I'll add a hook Matter of fact, let me first finish my book "Verses from the heart" Thoughts now turned to art Influenced by what I see Tupac, my upbringing and my whole entire family 5 mics for just being son_of_eve 5 mics for describing life's complexities 5 mics for overdue respect 5 mics is all I expect 5 mics for giving you food for the soul Just gimme the whole 5 mics in total A_nigelmugamu_verse copyright 2003.

Instinct.Poet Posted June 27, 2003 mZ-aLPHA-pOET I DIDN'T HOLD THAT AGAINST HIM. cuz i though he wasn't a somali or muslim. Strange though, could be two things here, He barrowed that verse or he didn't and just might be another christian on SOL. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeadlyVision Posted June 27, 2003 Gimme ma 5mics. You can keep the fame I keep the game away from the spot lights. Even tho I must spit a chorus for the source afcourse I got more blieves to outburst and pick fights. Fight the thoughts of Jesus being the Son of God. What not, dude must be visualizing from his blind spot. Like Instinct feels the need to protect son-of-eve's neck, what the heck? he a kufaar in SOL. Makes me wana LOL. But got no jokez to tell. Send him an his believes to hell. Judgemental towards the enemy even tho I try to judgeless. No stress, I still wlcm him to a debate about his believes...or like you said, he could be mistaking...all that could be a typo. And if thats not the case, i still wlcm him to debate str8...cause he came on SOL, and I can relate... I may have came too late but I'll drop a Vision for the sake of things becoming Deadly... ..... ~1~ PME Vision Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

son_of_eve Posted June 28, 2003 I don't know if you're a poet or an emcee What I know is your style makes me sorry Bottomline, what are you trying to say? Do you think you're that good at creative word play? Look at your work - eighth and nineth line I hate to tell you this, but you can't rhyme I asked for 5 mics and I made it really simple Food for the soul as I educate all my people I write floetry for them to assist in today's reality I write about life and its usual complexities I write because I can I don't do this so you can call me the man I try to avoid the spotlight and vainty Conscious thoughts and love are my speciality I'm trying to plant seeds for you mental Spit something so I can strenghthen you as an individual.

mz-alpha-soup Posted June 28, 2003 Fozia Bella....dont get it twisted luv...i spoke ma mind and didnt put no one down...so dont jump the gun with meaningless cheap jibes coz it aint gonna rub off on me nor score you any brownie points :rolleyes: son of eve..i have no qualms about your name....secondly i did not realize non muslims come on here..(naive of me)...thirdly am airing ma view and if u dont like it i couldnt care less...i aint imposing ma beliefs on you, you free to believe watever u want...but i beg to differ..and since this is a forum where we all supposed to unleash wateva we have inside , i dont think am stepping on your feet by telling you what i think... And about me spitting something worthwhile to you..i will pass on that coz ma creativity aint for show nor iz it for a dare by anyone let alone YOU :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
son_of_eve Posted June 29, 2003 mz-alpha-soup - I understand where you're coming from. You are allowed to air your views by all means. This is indeed a forum after all. What I said was really simple....we all need to respect each other that's all. This part was out of line and indicated a lack of brethen respect in my eyes:"acudhu bilaahi mina sheydhani rajiim...plz delete that from your poem"...and like you mentioned it is your view, but perhaps you should learn to respect mine too. Since 9/11 the world has changed and the world seems angrier than ever with the muslim world. I feel for you and I came here to learn about your world....help me see the other side that I never saw before. Irrespective of our different beliefs we're brethen...you think they look at us as if we're different? I doubt that very much... As for for your skills, I don't doubt them at all. I don't write to the fame either. I write coz I have something to say, something to teach. If you re-read this piece, you will see what I'm talking about....particularly the 5th stanza.

son_of_eve Posted June 29, 2003 I see you want to battle me? You game to battle against son_of_eve? I told you I’m here to feed your mental Don’t be defensive and don’t hide behind your ego I’m your brother in reality It’s okay if you want to share with me I was serious when I said we’re the same My soul cries out coz I really feel your pain I know I’m studying your cause and your truth In my teachings I admit I’m still a youth But I want to embrace as we both learn Teach you about my faith as we take it turns I don’t understand why we have to fight Knowledge is power and creates a little insight You say Islam is too profound to share with me? Your whole verse illustrates a high level of insecurity My brother I came to embrace you and show love I came here to show you that it was you I was thinking of I told you I am a poet scribing my reality I sense a deeper fear and down deep you’re so angry I won’t lie 9/11 changed the whole globe I came here to show you I'm also involved Admittedly I don’t know much about your faith But I can tell these days you feel unsafe You’re blinded by pain, ego and pride My arms wide open, you no longer have to hide God blessed me with a gift I intend to use Spread my message of tolerance less mental abuse I too see what they do Believe me I know what you’re going through No need for this verbal attack In the end they still regard us niggers & blacks I’m here to teach about life complexities. I’m just a conscious poet and they call me son_of_eve One love Her Son Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
