Mc_spirited Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Maybe you guys (And gals- Edit) will enjoy this. I wrote it the other week. I like it allot.Every time I strap on my helmet, I prepare to dieIf you aren't okay with that I suggest you shouldn't rideIts nothin' to take lightly, that is riding a bikeNot talkin' pedals here, more like exhaust pipesAint the weekend warrior type I ride every single dayDon't mind those cold mornings and I love the rainSome months I leave my car parked for like twenty fuckin' daysIf it could be personified I'm sure it would feel enragedI love the way that that air fills up my lungsWhen I travel through a shaded corner sheltered from the sunThere's too many things to fit into a songIf I said I loved something more, I'm sure id be wrongI'll be ridin' long past my middle agesProbably, on some old man bike, like a Harley DavidsonAs long as some cunt doesn't run me overTalkin' on her cell phone or listenin' to roverNot thinkin' about driving, changing lanes or movin' overNot sure what shes thinking as shes comin' closerSo I drop down a couple gears and twist on the throttleAccelerate like carbonation from a soda bottleI love those spaces in traffic when I'm all by myselfWatchin' for the cars that come into my zoneIf one of em' wants to tangle than I'll leave em' alonePull away so fast you couldn't reach me with a phoneIll keep goin' but when I see a corner my speed dropsCos along those blind turns ya gotta watch out for copsSo I scan the horizon and check on my backIf I think the coast is clear then I get back on the gasWhen I finally get home I can drop my guardPaying attention every moment can be pretty hardRidin' a motorcycle most days can be funOther times it makes me glad that I don't carry a gunIt can be pretty taxing on your physical and mentalIf ya don't agree with me you'll end up twisted up like a pretzelLayin' in a hospital bed existing like a vegetableOr cryin' in a ditch somewhere prayin' for rescueBefore you get in the saddle just acknowledge the riskOr you can disregard my words and write me off as a prickBut either way it is inevitable, most of us get nickedEither be it by a car or by some gravel that we missedSo keep the shiny side up and the rubber on the groundAlways stay aware when your ridin' around I know that Kenny passed so no disrespect meant if the end hits a bad note for anyone.

Mc_spirited Posted March 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 That's how I wrote it. I dont really rap or anything, I would if I made friends with someone who could produce some music. The User name came from my initials, I dont mean it as Emcee. More along the lines of MotorCycle spirited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbret Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Send it in to a few mags before someone rips it off claiming it to be theirs. What have you got to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
