Thelonius

Thelonious Sphere Monk (, October 10, 1917 – February 17, 1982) was an American jazz pianist and composer. He had a unique improvisational style and made numerous contributions to the standard jazz repertoire, including "'Round Midnight", "Blue Monk", "Straight, No Chaser", "Ruby, My Dear", "In Walked Bud", and "Well, You Needn't". Monk is the second-most-recorded jazz composer after Duke Ellington.Monk's compositions and improvisations feature dissonances and angular melodic twists and are consistent with his unorthodox approach to the piano, which combined a highly percussive attack with abrupt, dramatic use of switched key releases, silences, and hesitations. Monk's distinct look included suits, hats, and sunglasses. He also had an idiosyncratic habit duri… more »

My mom really cared for you and loved you
She told me
She was grateful

If I only could
Make a deal with God
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building

I sit alone internalizing reality
Typewriting my transgressions again
A feeling I battled so long ago
Back yonder in two thousand and ten
How do you murder a murderer so silent
How do you counter affliction beyond violent
How you battle a virus that's so tyrant
When do you ask God for science to help a scientist
All I have is questions with none of the answers
The enemy can move with the speed of a panther
Strip away the beautiful song of a dancer
Now I've written an open letter to Cancer
I know who you are I know what you do
But you don't know me so I'm coming to you
They say you're conceived within the government
Man-made a biological supplement
For the poisoning of mankind
Because of you, every day a man dies
Because of you, every day a man tries
But you defeat a superstar until the fans cry
I'm asking why? do you give a warning sign
To coincide with the scanners of an MRI
I wonder what's your body count, do you realize
You deconstruct alot of lives and then immobilize
I'm looking in your eyes, you come alive in death
I remember when you took away my Uncle Jeff
I thought I lost you through my courage
But you're back to scare me
Pray to the Lord but you took away my Hail Mary
She was everything to Jen and then her brothers and her sisters
A maternal holy grail to Nicholas and Gabriel
I was not of her blood but she told me clearly so
That I'm one hell of a father and she loves me dearly so
So how do I respond
Do I look up to the Heavens
With a heart full of vengeance and curse God?
Nah...he's not the problem
Maybe he can give me the tools to solve them
You can deactivate the system, the illness you can moderate
Paying every penny to chemotherapy operate
It doesn't compensate your fatal state of mind
A ventriloquist disease with rhythms of every kind
You take away the spirit I can hear it in your breath
You victimize lungs then you tear apart the breast
You infiltrate the colon you're a savage to the liver
What was once warm blooded is cold chill with a shiver
You left a child bitter now they can express hate
You're killing their beloved and slaughter innocent fates
You prey upon the weak until they can no longer speak
And turntable the beat until the heart drops rate
Wait, to the people that survived
Tell me your secret please how did you decline
I wanna keep this light inclined at least until it shines
Stage 4... please let it rewind
Why... my life is at a cost
This is for anybody who suffered a hero's loss
To the monster I've berated on
You never know I may be next
So what you waiting on

If I only could
Make a deal with God
And get him to swap our places
Be running up that road
Be running up that hill
Be running up that building

Here's advice to the most
Cherish your loved ones and hold them close
The plague is quick the suffer is slow
And if you take it for granted then your love is a ghost
Here's advice to the most
Cherish your loved ones and hold them close
The plague is quick the suffer is slow
And if you take it for granted then your love is a ghost

I have no hate in my heart for anyone
Except for you
I might as well prepare myself
'Cuz one day
You might come for me too
