What 2 say!

What 2 say!
What to write
Words are so useless,
No help even from a newsflash,
I just keep everything inside,
All you need is insight,
to know a person,
Life is like I m moving the mouseBut not the cursor,
Its a system failure, may be,
So all this coz I m crazy,
Eyes never lie,
And ontop of that they never try,
Can't you read my eyes,
Sun is blocked by the high rise,
You can see only if you want to,
But heart break is something
I have been prone to,
Incognito and unknown too,
Looking back now look what we have grown to,
Do I need to say,
Anything today,
Actions speak louder than words,
No matter how do they come,
Some people are prouder than some,
No I don't believe everything you told me,
I m the wind nothing can hold me,
Till 6 feets fold me,
Calenders change so will we,
May be then I wouldn't speak so freely,
Love is not verbal,
Use of figures of speech is not a hurdle,
But then we will come full circle
Its back to
What to say*

Is gone

when all your love is gone,
what will I do with this life all alone,
Waiting, Hoping that you would come,
So if the ego ever lands make a U-turn,
Nobody knows which way you are bound,
You never told always so proud,
May be you will find a place to stop,
Go away now don't stop,
Don't turn back you are making it hard,
Go now I will be ok with a broken heart,
You never even tried to know me,
Acting like you are the only one lonely,
When all your love is gone,
The emptiness will be filled with pain,
For once this heart will be chained,
No longer will be torn,
When everything will be said n done,
You wouldn't be there its hard enough knowing,
I have tried everything to keep you from going,
Nothing seems to work,
But now the more I try the more it hurts,
I guess You have to leave to truly understand me,
What we shared was special and what it could have been,
I guess regrets will bring you down,
And I can't sleep over these feelings I own,
I hope you know the saying,
You don't know what you have till its gone,
And all this,
When your love is gone*

My side of the story

this is the story of my life,
it starts with
u will know me when I die,
this is what i felt inside,
you dont really know me,
but this is my side of the story,
nobody knows this is untold,
so much pain and I swallow it all,
waited so long but you never called,
I was mistaken you are not what I thought,
You never cared or so i thought,
You saw me crying but never the tears,
But I wiped them, now the vision is clear,
All you ever cared about was yourself,
Called but only when you want help,
Lets not get into all that,
You hurt my feelings you know what you did,
Even writing about this feels so stupid,
In this rollercoaster life I thought I would hold on to you,
I was there but you just did what you had to do,
You are no different from all my so called friends,
I judged you wrong so what next,
My life is a story half untold,
Half misconstrued,
Only ugly duckling in the brood,
Always misunderstood,
Bring the pain I m ready for more,
I want some more,
The broken heart I carry, You just broke a lil more,
But this is not something you should know,
I will keep giving no matter what you do,
Friendship was one sided something I dont have to prove,
You are smart enough to know better,
There have been many like you that I have weathered,
Someday you will understand
Where I stand, What I m
But till then
Let it be*

Cherish the pain

This is world is like a prison
I was dead, now I have risen,
What I want to do is just the opposite to
What they want me to do, I wanna break free,
Only if I could count more than three,
The chains of compulsion are holding me,
They try and can’t stop molding me,
I want to be myself, only if this anger could help,
My fist turns red, the wall is still left to,
Pain is mandatory, anger is what helps,
Staring down the sun, it feels the scorching heat,
While I let off a little steam,
This is like a bad dream, that I see everyday,
May be someday I shall run away,
Morning is dark like the night passed by,
May be someday I will get the answers to questions why,
Rage is nirvana for the youth,
Swallow the false, spit the truth,
Coz nothing is what it seems,
In the laughter the conscience screams,
Crying out loud when they told you to maintain silence,
In your every smile there is a little violence,
Swallow the fear, fight till the end,
End is near so better learn to defend

The city is mine Pt 1

This is about the place I was born,
This is about the place I was raised,
This is what I represent what I own,
Better yet the city is mine,
Yes I hate the heat and the pollution,
But its all fine,
Coz after all, the city is mine,
Like I said,
Where all my memories are laid,
Every street knows me, I know,
Where I ain’t afraid to go,
I hope to see the city in time,
Yes that city is mine,
The place where myself I find,
That city is mine,
Laid back attitude but gotta make my city proud,
I would never let my city down,
Coz the city is mine,
I belong to the city,
The city belongs to me,
City is the place where my roots are,
But I left too far, coz I find the fruits sour,
That’s where my heart is, now read between the line,
And the line goes, the city is mine,
From A.C to T.O journey wasn’t easy,
But I realize quickly, there ain’t another city like mine
And yes again, the city is mine

Me & I

This is for you, I
When I speak to you,
You make me forget my pain,
Makes me believe I should stay the same,
Makes me wanna forgive all the backstabbing friends I had,
You are unlike all the friends I had,
There’s something about you,
That makes me wanna hate you,
The very next second love you,
I wished I had found you earlier,
To be my friend you are worthy of,
I have just met you
But I feel like I have known you since years,
And I m prone to fears,
Therefore I m scared to lose you,
But I have also told you,
That I have been to hell and I have cruised through,
Its not that I don’t have friends
Its just that I don’t have friends like you,
I just want you to know we are forever friends,
But If this ever ends it will be heaven sent,
No matter what may come,
I will always be there for you,
Through your ups and downs support you,
When you are feeling down you know whom to call to,
I just hope you feel the same way,
And our friendship ain’t name sake,
I can tell you anything pour my heart out,
I can make through the struggle it ain’t hard now,
Apparently,
Talking to you is like therapy,
To get things off my chest,
I know time will try n test,
Our friendship but I will be ready for whatever,
With time we got better,
So except you who can I trust?
In this cold world,
That’s the reason; to me you are more than a girl,
More than a friend,
And just so that you know I won’t try to pretend,
Its not that I didn’t have topic to write
I just wanted to show you what you mean to me*

Life n Rhymes of Incognito

This is the life of Incognito
These are the rhymes of Incognito
These are the times
This is what I call
Life n Rhymes of Incognito*

School of the hardknocks

Welcome to hard times
I made it through,
But sometimes my heart cries,
I know it was worth it,
Even though I paid an odd price,
Never thought I would be here,
But I proved, me wrong,
It took me a while,
I know now where I belong,
I graduated from the school of the hardknocks,
It wasn’t easy,
Making decisions on a hard spot,
I soaked in the mistakes,
Ran the race but always a dark horse,
I know something was guiding me,
A power, a force,
Now I make up every second,
For the hours I lost,
Working my way through,
I would never count my regrets,
Keep doing what I m doin,
Never sit back knowing I m blessed,
I graduated from the school of the hardknocks,
My teachers said I would amount to nothing,
They were like I would be doing some odd job,
I made them eat their words,
Like they were starving and hungry,
During winter the birds fly south,
I flew west, left my country,
I m that diamond in the dirt,
Still to be shaped,
I m making my own path, there is nobody I have tried aped,
So many battles won,
I fought my way through pain,
I made through the obstacles,
I was born to go against the grain,
I met that monster in the mirror
Befriended him, took up the challenge
And made it through the rain*

Ill Side(Re-Instate)

Be careful what you ask for,
You just might get it,
You just might regret it,
Live in the present, you might be the next kid,
Assume nothing, facts live,
Artists die, tracks live,
Eyes spit truth, words deceive,
Gotta give b4 u receive,
Doesn’t always hold true,
Its been years since I have known you,
But you are just starting to know me
It’s the life I chose
Rather than life that chose me,
Life’s a bitch, so many times about if only,
So spiritual but thoughts unholy,
Me against myself like many b4 me,
Act like I owe them, not me,
Damn the world I ride lonely,
Get out of my face, you phony,
Summer times unforgettable,
Some time regrettable,
Every coin has too sides,
But me I m 2 nice,
When I said that I speak 2 lies,
Fake love true hate,
Got a heart that everybody loves 2 break,
Can’t walk proper but loves 2 skate,
Real ones relate,
Missed me,
I follow my instinct,
Relation of a dog and a biscuit,
Nobody knows when my heart bleeds,
Nobody understands my needs,
May be bcoz I have always been Incognito
Voice of the young people,
Now who’s addressing the issues that need 2*

Still Ride(Mind Re-State)

RealReal recognize real
Rests of them look familiar
But I also know most of them chameleon,
God’s favorites have a hard time,
Dear Lord You could have told before mine,
So many times life’s about mind over matter,
And people who matter won’t mind,
You sold your soul to the devil,
To the rhymes I have sold mine,
People who can’t hold pen become writers,
People who don’t know how to spend time become rhymers,
This is the way I master these one liners,
So many pluses make you overlook the minus,
To your mom you are a super star,
You are 22 and still you don’t know who you are,
Like the predators of Serengeti,
My parents dare me,
To be sober but only at times,
Coz our relations are healthy,
And I have learnt plenty,
I graduated from School of the Hardknocks,
I spit my hard thoughts,
Am I just a demon,
Living just to spread my semen,
Or there is a bigger purpose,
Or does thinking like this seem worthless,
I m making you think none the less,
I.N.D.I.A
Individuals Never Die Influences Alive,
Only strong individuals survive,
If I m good I would die young,
But if I m not I will outlive everyone,
My finger prints on the walk of fame,
Miss me when I m 6 feet deep with my 6 feet frame
When the lil chick picks grains,
God watches it, for the circling eagle,
And when I m riding purple and silver,
So I thank you Lord every time You were watching my back,
There was a bigger purpose, But I m nervous
To face God, every time I attend church service

KillPride(Mind State)

I believe in Bible not the Reverend,
Coz I don’t know what’s about to happen,
So don’t push me when I hold this weapon,
There’s a fine line between respect and disregard,
Let me perfect my part,
Dear Lord, I’ve been walking since so long,
All this time I ve been alone,
Can’t figure out was I living or existing,
I feel indebted every time I m breathing,
I m tryin 2 find myself,
I open my eyes and few years passed,
Unanswered questions left,
Hoping now Lord answers fast,
But I doubt coz we ain’t talked since long,
And now I m sorry,
I m selfish like every mirror I watch,
Slow at heart, quicker at thought,
All the pain I stuffed inside,
Is bursting out the words are weapons I recite,
Passion I ignite,
But so often in my mind,
I m tired of struggling I hate it,
But I know I will wake up one day and realize I made it,
Why is love a word overrated?
Why is one other four lettered word so overstated?
What does it take us to rise above it,
Why did it take me to leave my country
To realize how much I love it,
I know what you gonna stay
If I love my country why did I leave it
When I say my heart is still there believe it
If my life I chose rather than life that chose me
I m schizophrenic you can’t know me
I rose from the ashes of the dreams u ruined
But theres no feud,
This is not it mind state continued…..

Blood Brotherz

You had the same kind of childhood I did,
Spent most of the time playing cricket on the street,
Shared days and our ways,
Labeled good for nothing but sometimes found praise,
I spent more time with you than my brother,
Yes, we are friends but you know what I take it further,
So its only fair to say you are my blood brother

We shared the same thought,
We have been feuding but our friendship is strong as a rock,
We shared differences coz we all are a lil different,
Few lost way coz we all love our freedom,
Achieved nothing but we are proud as hell,
Many haters came and you can touch and tell,
Yes I am first to leave
But you know I will be the first to give,
We’ll do anything for each other
Coz after all you are my blood brother,

I promise you all I will return for sure,
You know me I keep my word
I want you all to be well settled,
I m cruising hell, still unrattled,
I know real men don’t cry but I m missin you
I know you will die for my name,
Any disrespect to me and you will drive em insane,
And you know I would do the samething too
So there’s none other
But you are my blood brother

Reminisce on the time spent so sweet,
Watched each other grow, Summer and December,
I know you remember
I taught you many things, And vice versa,
I call you once a week say “ nice to hear ya”
I hope to bring back those days n chill again,
Its like we share the same blood line,
I know u feel the pain I m under,
Me and my blood brother

Happy Now II

I have forgiven you but thers nothing you have done,
Time is a teacher, is what they say,
I have turned away but I don’t know what it takes
To let something go away,
I hope you are happy now,
That I don’t follow you around,
That I don’t do those crazy things anymore,
But I m looking back while I m leaving,
Wishing you best but this feeling is unforgiving
Hope you find one you need,
A confidant, a friend indeed,
Life is small I hope you measure it well,
Many other things I did wanna tell,
But not now I hope you know why,
One thing I wanna tell you is be happy always,
Happy with whoever u choose,
Don’t wanna warn you against the evils of the day,
You know the truth what can I say,
With your so called friends I hope u r happy now,
Guilty not for what I have done,
I hope you are happy now,
Wanna say these words but can’t be now,
I m leaving but I will not forget you somehow,
After all this feeding your pride
Are you happy now?

So many...

Never ever had a best friend, Never stayed with anyone to call one so,
Always had friends who left me before I told em to go
Always were around when they needed me,
I was always there but they decided instead,
I know I wasn’t always true,
But I guess I did what I had to do,
Always counted on myself when the time wasn’t right,
They had my back but always alone I fight,
I keep my trust on the one looking from the top,
Obstacles stop me but I will not stop,
Walking alone I do my thing,
I m always open with two arms like swing,
Though I was in love pure,
Only to find out I wasn’t so sure,
Felt like I would get lost in those eyes,
I know I feared God but I always was devil in disguise,
Never won a gold but never settled for a silver either,
I m running a marathon but I can’t take a breather,
Just when you thought I wouldn’t do something like this,
I just throw away my reputation and do something crazy insane,
Always gave y best but I feel like losing without even tryin,
I know that’s what cowards do but I can’t stop cryin,
I know I’ll find my way destiny is in my hands
And there’s not denying

The City is mine

i m a concrete eagle,
flying thru smoke tryin to see things equal,
I tell u what i see thru eyez of mine,
often overlooked the cries of the child,
I tell u the truth, eyez of the wild,
So much diversity tries to divide,
rich and poor, caste and the creed,
i see the house and the hate it breeds,
minds are crazed and sick,
i m often amazed at this,
Just then God raised the heat,
Sweatin, I m tryin to increase my liquid intake,
I ve loved the city since i was in 6th grade,
I love the city still no mistake,
The city lights shinning on my face,
Ahmedabad City is the place,
So hypocritical, Got me irrate,
I got links so I m just throwing my weight,
I m just tryin to know my hate,
I m riding too fast I need to slow my pace,
I need to floss, I need to show my best,
City's moving on, following path of the west,
Few figures coming up, Start the unrest,
As a citizen, my part is put to test,
I feel the city choking every evening,
You can't use dictionary to match every meaning,
The smoke makes hard to even see 6 feet and,
I m just tryin to come to terms with joy of defeating,
Every few months a new kind of greeting,
Broken dreams found wings I m leaving,
But still far away i can feel the city breathing,
Even when its asleep,
Got the youth caught up in the grip,
the vices, keep the city in one piece,
Not asking for more but more than one wish,
City gifted me a style to run with,
And an attitude u wud like too,
There's more to the city than a business and a design school,
I didn't use a ruler for a line I drew,
Parents pushin refusin teens,
lil past notoriety,
Middle class authority,
Money with cooperative tellers,
End up makin 'em high city dwellers,
The City state dry,
Some of the high grade lies,
End of October and something illuminates the sky,
Come January and again its colorful and bright,
city doesn't sleep 9 days a year,
I m talkin aloud there are 9 ways to hear,
trouble fiends suicide,
Get double wings n fly,
to the promised land, Was this planned,
No notice sent,
The retail boom,
My homies send the details soon,
6 weakened teens spend time at 6 silver screens,
And 6 years later 6 livers weak,
Expanding like exponential,
Still below full potential,
Supplying every essential,
Progressing in sections, Demandin attention,
Migrants attraction, Never liked fractions,
Never visited the ashram,
But i got more than art lovers in my arsenal,
I 've got business people and even fanatics,
City is known for more than aesthetics,
From hustle bustle of the old city, where peoples bargaining,
To far west where new youth is waiting,
Many winds have carved the stone,
Charity of many things starts at home,
Same place where hearts have grown,
Same face that the skies have known,
Vacant is where lies the throne,
I've waited for this b4 i was 9,
I claim the city, The City is mine

Youth of my nation

Youth of my nation

I m talking to you

I can fill ur shoes

Any given day I can walk in 2 u,

I know u don’t disgrace ur country

But unknowingly what if u do,

I just wanted to do

All the things I wanted to do,

There are a few things I pointed 2 u,

I m the son of the same soil that anointed u,

I wanted to make it big I was disappointed too,

But I dug deep inside 2 find a way,

To fight the pain,

Like I said,

This is addressed to the youth of the nation,

Let’s identify the truth we are facing,

To and fro, the mood keeps changing,

The best of the talent is lost to an alien,

The rest of the talent blamed for the failing,

Then people like you and me do the detailing,

Before u start a storm look where you sailing,

Think a lil, Youth of my nation

I m just tryin to start a conversation,

We curse and hate the country we are born,

The country we are from,

We move far away and realize where we went wrong,

Gather our regrets and put em in a song,

But don’t worry we are strong,

I just hurried into a thought,

Truth is something we have sought,

Always so let’s just stop,

So can we have a lil moment of clarity?

Can we have a lil parity,

Work towards prosperity,

But its so sad that the,

Youth of my nation

Don’t have any patience

Youth of my nation

Never Friends

we were never friends,
We are just somebody who went college together,
we just spend 3 best years together,
we shared many a laughs,
some cherished, some left unnoticed,
I have nothing on you,
I learnt a lot from you,
You were a lot smarter,
I called you on your b'day every year after,
I waited for the call that never came,
What if I miss you and the times we spent together,
But we were never friends and whatever,
You felt like I had crush on you or something,
I was just tryin to be a good friend and nothing,
I thought you knew me better,
Considering how many times I called you after class,
No questions asked,
I have had many a back stabbing friends
So these words are the aftermath,
I thought you were different, somebody who understands me,
But u didnt nor my friends did,
I used to bunk college and I made u bunk too,
I watched your back and see that you come through
I was always there you left with ends open,
somethings are better left unspoken,
I don't know why am I feeling so bad still?
About somebody I was never friends with*

What 2 write!

I don't know what 2 write,
About the flow I recite,
Or what I decide,
About the struggle I've been through,
Or the troubles I sent you,
Honestly, I don't know what to write,
I am emotionally exhausted,
What more I wanted,
Next verse I write when the feelings comeback,
You know how the line goes, Been there done that,

I don't know what 2 write,
All the friends I miss,
Or should it be about the girl I kissed,
Regrets I have, Or the battles I have braved,
Roads are grave, but more I have paved,
Comebacks I have staged,
Or the rapids I have raged,
The demons I have caged,
Or the hate inside me,
I wasn't born with a pen but I m sure to die with,
But guess what? I don't know what 2 write,
Next verse when I decide,
Killpride or 4186 I ride,
The country I represent,
Or the worries I have 2 end,
No words for those who question me,
Coz I have learnt what patience is,
I m writing my life away,
Its gonna be my time oneday,
My words will live on even if I die,
Now that I know what 2 write*
