SongEveryDay - 16: Prophet (by MsMino)

lyrics: 
she builds coffins
out of cardboard
signs each
with a different name

she sells forgiveness
from the corner
for quarters
she’ll buy your shame

she knows how
it’s all going
to end
it isn’t floods or flame

she shouts we’ll be
swept away by indifference
and whispers
the end already came

Dark Corners by soveryvibrant

In darkness, a beating heart
Yet no creature to be found
Scratch of claws upon a door
A phantom's come around

Sounds of death approaching
No victim yet in sight
Feel of night encroaching
Where there once was a light

Hiding in a corner
Dark as blackest mud
The reaper bides his deathwatch
Time oozes by, like blood

But soft, approaching voices
Laughter cutting through the gloom
A lantern chases shadows
But can not banish doom

Creaking of the oaken door
Weak light invades this place
The corner draws no light
Nor does the reapers face

Behind his blackened caul
They are blessed by not seeing
As death makes his descent
For them, there is no fleeing

  Hi Moms
  by My Rap Name is Alex 
  
  There are no self made men we're all made by our moms
  gratitude to every mom and we all shine on
  like the moon and the stars and the sun and the one
  everything freedom rings once we all can have fun 
  if we stand together we can overcome
  and be grateful to the moms that we come from 
  my dudes we gotta own it
  war is over if you want it
  time to end the war on women it was wrong from the beginning
  woman wisdom  exhalt it and embrace it
  wake up and face it then you might not need to chase it
  see I wanna love hip hop but my concern is this
  c'mon man... who you callin a bitch?
  U.N.I.T.Y. philogynist till I die 
  It's natural... shouldn't even need to try
  see I / roll with women that are worthy of respect
  which is to say I roll with women 
  Mic check

  on this planet that we live in I'm just so greatful for women  mmmm-hmmm
  on this planet that we live in I'm just so greatful for women  mmmm-hmmm
  
  I had all the attention I ever needed before I even touched a mic
  so I never had to try to say a thing to be liked
  thanks mom for that  think you'd be proud of where I'm at
  I always try to give back.  I'm glad you taught me that  
  I'll never equal your compassion but I believe I exhibit your patience
  So many traits in my daughter have you as their foundation 
  I know you'd love her mom  just as you loved all kids
  she still plays with some of the toys that you kept well hid
  she has a wordless skeptical face
  that takes me back through time and space
  quiet times together just waiting out the weather
  man I haven't stirred this pot in forever
  I just miss you and I love you and I always will 
  you impact this world daily still 
  
  on this planet that we live in I'm just so greatful for women  mmmm-hmmm
  on this planet that we live in I'm just so greatful for women  mmmm-hmmm
  
  And then there's another woman that holds me up like water
  I call her my love person  the mother of my daughter 
  our provider, our exciter, our make us go outsider
  our joyburst nourisher that makes the sun shine brighter  
  didn't drop like a tornado  we got to simmer and stew
  and distill so see still how much I love you 
  who made me yearn to be a beauty in leiu of a beast 
  you'll come to mind every time I ever hear fur elise
  from the first chilly morning we ever cucooninated 
  you've been cherished, loved, adored, appreciated
  thanks a million for mixing DnA with me
  gratitude for every moment that you stay with me
  a super hero you that swooped in and flew 
  us to a warm cozy spot that we can grow into 
  sorry for what the world of work is puttin you through 
  I recommit to doing more than I do
  because I love you

  on this planet that we live in I'm just so greatful for women  mmmm-hmmm
  on this planet that we live in I'm just so greatful for women  mmmm-hmmm
