E.O.P. 3: Point Of No Return

No turning back now
we're at the point of no return
failure is not an option
nor is it a big concern

We won't let it slow us down
to us it doesn't mean a thing
we'll write our way up to the top
that's what poetic freedom means

In the eyes of us poets
things aren't always what they seem
in need of a carefree environment
from our imaginations we write dreams

See with the power of a poetic license
we can rewrite certain chapters of our lives
yeah I know that's stretching reality
so what we won't give up the fight

We're the most sensitive creatures
we let things get the best of our emotions
but poetry is our only outlet
to put a stop to all these commotions

Poets have become so underrated
people say our craft has been replaced
but they talk without thinking
saying things impulsively in haste

How can you replace something
that inevitably helped pave the way?
without the art of poetry how many rappers
and singers would there be today?

Go ahead answer the question
don't worry I'll wait
we don't hear y'all saying nothing
'cause y'all are nothing but fakes

Calling poets out on creativity
is a war that you will lose
y'all are way too drunk on arrogance
do us a favor lay off the booze

Come back down to earth
your judgemental ways we wanna refine
will you please allow our words
to knock some sense into your minds?

Let us paint a portrait
fill in the blanks of the unknown
to awaken all the critics
detoxify them of the drugs they own

Poets are forever
one day I hope they all will learn
that there is no turning back
we're at the point of no return
