My First Rap Lines. Does It Make Any Sense? by Nobody: 7:18am On Dec 20, 2014
I pray its not curiosity that will still kill me o. I've loved Rap for a long time, and I know its poetry in some way so I decided it won't be bad to try it. I got some materials together and wrote some 'rap'.

[b]
THE SKY IS WITHIN MY LIMIT

The sky's within my limit so I do a thousand things,try to combine/
It's a spirit so I try more and when I don't get what I want I re brand,try to refine/
Cos success ain't your count o' gold but how much you go beyond the sky,the way I define/
See me going beyond the sky,before it was poetry addiction,today I was diagnosed with rap incline/

The sky's within my limit and that's why I'm here tonight/
Rhymes are mystifying,but I I'm here with my first rhymes fighting for a Kings' crown, yeah I'm alright/
You know I stand atop the skies and that seems plain impossible to your heretic mind./
You run in sneakers, on tracks, away from facts, get this into your head man,it doesn't take time./

The sky's within my limit so I stand atop it hustling,moving steps closer to success/
Today I had another call from another popular actress/
Said she's broke,gave her plenty money in dollars but I still got trillions in my account with Access/
That's why I gotta fly more cos when these things happen only in my dreams what's the essence?/

The sky's within my limit so I try to be many at once. Mandela, Obama, and now Commando./
My brother said its impossible,and it said 'm possible so I took some classes in Taekwondo./
Now I give these speeches, free these masses and knock out rude niggas to stupor with my magical kick combos/
So when they wake,they talk of seeing Commando and the dope ones say they were knocked out by Candal's 1Hobo/

The sky's within my limit and that's why I write some poetry/
Comes from deep within,announces some kind of body and mind silent solidarity/
I used to think inking lines were impossible for me,but I was gradually becoming R. Brooke when he inked of peace or unity/
But the day I crossed the sky, I edited my copy of the dictionary and crossed out in permanent ink, the word 'impossibility/

"The sky's within my limit" it talks about me/
I heard it first when I was young but I took it unserious cos I was mad loving Simbi/
But I remember hearing it first from a loser, late now, was a symbol of misery/
Funny he said it, cos losers have the sky above them, but never within their limits/

Winning is a choice/

The sky's within my limit and that's why I threw all choices away but kept 'winning'/
There were days I was so lonely, and stared at the ceiling so much I crushed on the ceiling/
But the next day, I still went hustling, hiding my real self behind these smiles,hiding those awry feelings/
My real self is somewhere on a lonely island, crying or reading or writing or sleeping, doing something/

I hide it, try to forget it so I'm not always sure where it is or what its doing/
But cos the sky's within my limit, I battle the challenges, jump the hurdles, if its all about winning/
And if someone ever calls this  thing 8 bars,remember I scripted it/
Scripting this, is my definition of winning.
