Keep Them Astonished

Green Pad, Green Pad,

who is the hardest worker in the room,

Green Pad, Green Pad,

who is the one with all the words,

​

Green Pad, Green Pad,

who is the greatest of them all,

you only have 1 grind,

1 time, 1 sweat,

1 breath, 1 performance, 1 Story,

1 legacy in my Destiny

1 goal, 1 shore, 1 boat,

1 light to shine from being dim all my life.

1 body, 1 heart, 1 mind

one of a kind,

1 inspiration, 1 chance,

​

1 courage, 1 motivation, 1 smile, 1 love

1 Never giving up can do attitude,

1 dream, 1 dime to dime, 1 risk, 1 death

many fails

but I'm blessed praying for 1 more, 1 more day

​

hey

I have 99 problems like you

but here's a speech I say when I'm down.

every knick knack down

brings me 3 pounds experience on my chest,

I'm a mess, I might be rift raft,

turning my life into something harder than my doctor prescribed

but boy, I take that pill with a thrill to

keep them Astonished

at all times.

give me one shot praying for that 1 shot

Ill bring the vision you bring the division

because I'm not good at math at all,

bring the voice

its not my choice to be shy

its my kind of cigarette you don't want to try,

I'm too far into it to come out on the other side,

 sometimes I feel like I’m caged 

and other times I feel like a mute but,

I have a voice,

carry it louder they say,

no fear to be scared of they say,

but sadly every time I open my mouth,

I hear footsteps,

and I see phantoms walking though me like you,

All of you,

people don’t know me,

I have thoughts that can help humanity

but, they don’t let me talk

sometimes I feel like I'm in a movie,

I'm a background extra,

no one sees me,

life is moving without me.

I'm trying to shine though all these tough times.

I can tell you a story why I'm worth listening too,

I scream louder but the louder I get,

I get quieter.

God,

how does a boy with apraxia and dyslexia get known,

when no one wants me to win,

I try to defend these monsters day after day but

1 seeped in,

through the walls it got in, when I was not looking

and said,

my name is Beacon Hill. no fear needed, I'm here to save you,

stop being ashamed,

I'm here for you to claim your rightful place.

I know life has been hell Lately,

Ill help to turn it around Hopefully, Brandon,

no monsters are gonna get you now,

you can let your guard down if I'm around.

I will defend you from anything that can

stop you,

so give it all you have.

like this is your final chance your final breath on this earth

and

Never give up.
