"I Fell From the High"

For a moment,

I felt like a star.

For a moment,

I was getting very far.

For a moment,

I was getting to a good place.

For a moment,

I was remembering faces.

For a moment,

I could touch the sky.

And then one day,

I fell from the high.

"Shots Fired"

Shots fired--

As the world takes aim.

She's enemy #1,

As they target and blame.

"Red"

Red is passion,

Red is pain,

Red like lipstick--

Leaves a stain.

Red is anger,

Red is love,

Red like no other--

Rise above.
