Joi (y)

sometimes you have those days. the one where night falls into day.
the times where you know you were born to do it.

the moments where your life was more than through it.
when day turned to night and you lived through it.

the moments where you feel this air. breath this breath.
and all through it you... you just know that you were meant to do this.


to tackle this life and beat it down like a man.
to look the devil in the eye and laugh like hell at his plans.

days you know where not meant for man.
days you did not plan. even when you miss yo' man.

you can stand. you can lie. you can cry.
might even die if your master sees fit.

but you don't bug. you don't trip.
you just smile right through it.

that's it. the day you experience true Joi.


oh boy, when HE made me he broke the mold.
The story is yet untold. But HE foretold it.

He don't condone it all. But Lawd He don't leave me.
He loves me despite it all.  Even after the fall.


He gives me joy. breathes new life into this life of strife.
new joy in me, oh boy!

that's all. it's me after the Fall. through it all.
