Doubt Me Then



People want to doubt me
Getting too mouthy
Saying he's not doing nothing
Getting forced into the gutter
Water from the current... currently
Thinking he spitting in his flows
Like he causing a murder scene.
Reality just  hurting his dreams
Chasing girlies in the streets
Friends stay afloat with income streams
But little that they know he born to shine
Just hasn't reached his time.
Sometimes you gotta wait passed your prime
Isn't nothing made out to be like the fast lanes
Fast gains, even when you hustle hard for that fast change
Looking sold out with them gold chains
Smoke the dro just to maintain
All the B.S going in your brainframe
That you wish you could Ak 47 away
Now you know I'm repping teaching valuable lesson
Come out with the confession, I'm not going hard enough
I get it, they want to still look at my actions
I'll be their main attraction soon enough that's not fiction
Nor is it my prediction. Counting money in front
I'm not fronting, They want to run they mouth on mines,
Instead of worry about thier own, that's fine
I'm in a hurry to get my own, still patiently waiting
Now that's an oxymoron, I start to look rocky
You'll know that it's the work I go forth on.

Jon Otano

The topics I write about are very diverse, so are the poetry styles I apply. I started writing poetry in high school in 05. I had written some poetry during class and showed some of my classmates who enjoyed it! I then was chosen to have my poetry in the school newspaper for each month! I done a lot of my work in the library. I met a woman who i showed my work to that worked there, and she said she knew a man that works on the radio! Then i was able to read two poems off the radio. A news reporter who appeared on the station as well decided to do a report on me and I've been writing ever sense. :) If Anybody want to friend request me on Facebook feel free too! Just look up Jon Otano I should be easy to find! :) more…
