Analysis of A Legend Of A Peasant
The Poet Suggs 1983 (Beaver)
Emotionally defeated
pepper sprayed spiritually
Face down on the cement
bleeding of the soul terribly
soulz sliding past in glee
chuckling at one's despair
why must they laugh at thee
whose heart has dismissed fear
torn clothes covers these woes
challenging the goals into shambles
torched toes smothered heat coals
distress possibly has blessings canceled
laid, displayed for all eyes to view
a peasant sent from Heaven to test
a fool becomes of they who spew fool
for upon earth we are welcomed guests
many are distraughtly tormented
much more than expressed
Peace, honesty, the Lord sent it
Therefore, cursed becomes blessed
Shaking shackles of a likely misfortune
rising to the top of the tainted mug
such a hassle may cause psyche distortion
which requires a legitimate hug
Drug through the bloodiest mud
while focused on the road destined
One who once considered a dud
transformed into a legend from a peasant
