Today is my born day..been on this planet for a couple of years now and i'm truly blessed.  This is a time of growth, birth, and enlightenment.  Keeping on keeping on. 

When my time comes i want to be able to say/ that i did it my way/ in one accord/ i might have been lead astray, but i got back on board/ lived my life for the Lord/ as one of his soldiers/ i carried the world on my shoulders/ and released the boulders/ as i got older, i became even more wiser/ if there was advice i gave yah, i hope it helped like Kaiser / for your permanent way/ i only wanted for us to get higher/ than Hawaii’s Manu-Kea/ to be born again like the Messiah/ with a passion for life burning hotter than a California brush fire/ if i was in dire straits/ i straightened out like lifting them weights/ Houdini and C the master of great escapes/ my faith through fate/ helped me to contemplate my directions/ i shifted like tectonic plates, my Pangaea eventually connected at the right intersections/ progression was key/ to the potential that laid dormant inside of me/ i shaped my own reality like "Pavlov’s Metronome", a dreamer like Dostoyevsky/ my existential state altered my fabric of reality/ my existence, existed somewhere in the norm of abnormality/ practicality, well i was actually a little more on the side of organized chaos/ built my foundation with the G.O.D, carried my own cross/ came across angels that enlightened me, therefore i was never lost/ easily found/ when you needed me i came around/ lifted you up, when you were down/ respected your peace, didn’t make a sound/ that’s what i want them to say before i’m buried in the ground/ i like to clown, what’s life living for if you can’t smile/ my sorrow never needed to be drowned, dealt with it for the mean while/ until i shipped it out with the garbage/ hang the dog, but give him his character, one of my grandmothers favorite adages/ if i gotten this far, then i’ve passed my right of passage/ my body of work is massive, but i watched my weight/ worked out, watched what i ate/ the irony is loved to bake/ my batter contained love and compassion, which made for one tasty cake/ask little Debby, life is sweet even when we think its bitter/ the nasty tasting stuff is really what makes us feel better/ never say never/ because you never know whatever could happen whenever/ i took baby steps, then became the hot stepper like  Ini Kamoze/ the Alpha Chap show dog, that’s how i roll B/ "Omega Land" is looking cozy/ my final resting spot Zion, holy/ i wasn’t concerned with trophies or praise/ or how many people know me or personal parades/ i was concerned about saying thank you and asking please, plus honoring the lifelong relationships i made/ i wouldn’t trade my life for any ones/ i loved being me…who….Charles Williams

When my time comes i want to be able to say/ that i did it my way/ in one accord/ i might have been lead astray, but i got back on board/ lived my life for the Lord/ as one of his soldiers/ i carried the world on my shoulders/ and released the boulders/ as i got older, i became even more wiser/ if there was advice i gave yah, i hope it helped like Kaiser / for your permanent way/ i only wanted for us to get higher/ than Hawaii’s Manu-Kea/ to be born again like the Messiah/ with a passion for life burning hotter than a California brush fire/ if i was in dire straits/ i straightened out like lifting them weights/ Houdini and C the master of great escapes/ my faith through fate/ helped me to contemplate my directions/ i shifted like tectonic plates, my Pangaea eventually connected at the right intersections/ progression was key/ to the potential that laid dormant inside of me/ i shaped my own reality like "Pavlov’s Metronome", a dreamer like Dostoyevsky/ my existential state altered my fabric of reality/ my existence, existed somewhere in the norm of abnormality/ practicality, well i was actually a little more on the side of organized chaos/ built my foundation with the G.O.D, carried my own cross/ came across angels that enlightened me, therefore i was never lost/ easily found/ when you needed me i came around/ lifted you up, when you were down/ respected your peace, didn’t make a sound/ that’s what i want them to say before i’m buried in the ground/ i like to clown, what’s life living for if you can’t smile/ my sorrow never needed to be drowned, dealt with it for the mean while/ until i shipped it out with the garbage/ hang the dog, but give him his character, one of my grandmothers favorite adages/ if i gotten this far, then i’ve passed my right of passage/ my body of work is massive, but i watched my weight/ worked out, watched what i ate/ the irony is loved to bake/ my batter contained love and compassion, which made for one tasty cake/ask little Debby, life is sweet even when we think its bitter/ the nasty tasting stuff is really what makes us feel better/ never say never/ because you never know whatever could happen whenever/ i took baby steps, then became the hot stepper like  Ini Kamoze/ the Alpha Chap show dog, that’s how i roll B/ "Omega Land" is looking cozy/ my final resting spot Zion, holy/ i wasn’t concerned with trophies or praise/ or how many people know me or personal parades/ i was concerned about saying thank you and asking please, plus honoring the lifelong relationships i made/ i wouldn’t trade my life for any ones/ i loved being me…who….Charles Williams
