He writes with his heart

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



He writes with his heart
The mic is his pen
The rhymes are inside
He gets it again

He can't put it down
Over again
The beat is his ink
Every night is a win

The words move the masses
Arms wave from within
Jumping chairs thrown
Love is no sin

His body is the paper
its wearing thin
Images of christ
His spirit well trim

The verses scrumple
Into his skin
His life's work never complete
New life to rebegin
