I'm The Villain (original poem by SJones)
I guess, I'm the villain,
I'm the one you should hate.
My name on the list
Makes others groan and hiss.
I have an opinion,
And I'm the one in the wrong.
No matter what I say,
It seems I've said it all wrong.
Honesty is not the best policy,
At least that's what they say.
Some people are human washing machines,
They spin my words around
And wash the truth away.
Afraid of being right,
I'm kept out of sight.
Perhaps the dark has twisted my mind.
Maybe all the good I do
Needs to be left behind.
Because my bad moments
Are remembered more than the good.
The mistakes become the story,
Even when they shouldn't.
I guess, I'm the villain.
I'm the one you should hate.
I'm the name that makes them groan,
The one they love to berate.
No matter what I say,
No matter what I do,
Somehow I'm the problem
Before I've even started to.
I guess, I'm the villain.
Perhaps that's what I've become.
No matter what I've said or done,
I'll always be the one
They point at when it's said and done.
So hang me by my reputation,
Let the judgement have its fun.
For when everyone's made up their mind,
What chance has the villain got
To become the hero
When the damage is already done?

Being A Dad - Original Poem by SJones
Being a Dad
Being a dad isn't easy.
I get mad. I get sad.
Changing your bum can test my patience, while you wriggle and twist, cry for Mammy, and somehow find the strength to turn a simple nappy change into an Olympic sport.
I throw myself across the room like a goalkeeper, stopping you from touching the things you shouldn't touch. You don't care. You'll try again anyway. "The switch, Dad. Press it. I like it."
I stop you eating the strangest things. A plastic bag? That Looks delicious.
A door? Mmm that's worth tasting.
A cupboard? Worth slamming.
Again. And again. And again.
You explore the world, with fearless curiosity. I follow behind, trying desperately to keep you alive.
And while you're busy discovering everything, I'm busy questioning everything.
Am I a good dad?
Am I doing enough?
Why didn't I do that? Why don't I do this?
I worry about all the things, I can't teach you.
I can't ride a bike. I'm not sporty.
What good am I to you?
What if other dads are better? Do they feel like this too?
Or am I the only one lying awake, wondering if I'm enough? Sometimes I feel numb. Disconnected. And then comes the guilt.
Why don't I feel closer? Why am I struggling? Do I love my son?
The question hurts, because I already know the answer. Of course I do.
I love you in the way, that makes me worry endlessly.
I love you in the way, that makes me doubt myself.
I love you in the way, that makes me afraid of failing you.
And then you laugh.
I sneeze, and you nearly fall over laughing. I accidentally hit myself on the head with a poster tube, and you're gasping for breath. I fart, and suddenly I'm the funniest person who has ever lived. You point at plugs, with a mischievous smile.
I say no. You grin. I say no again. You grin wider. Eventually you get bored, sit on the floor, and set off to find another adventure.
You are ten months old. You crawl like a rocket. You stop, look over your shoulder, checking if I'm chasing you. And if I am? Turbo mode.
You take a few wobbly steps, and my heart nearly bursts. Ten months old, already doing things I couldn't do at your age.
I bum shuffled. I crawled. I was born with a broken leg. Yet here you are, determined to run before you can walk.
I want to give you everything.
The world. Every opportunity. Every chance to be happy. But the world scares me.
I remember my own childhood.
The bullying.
The anxiety.
The mistakes.
The freedom.
Diving into rivers.
Fishing with friends.
Exploring without fear.
And somewhere along the way, I became more aware, of pain, of consequences, of how fragile things can be.
Now the world feels louder. Faster, Crueler, The internet never forgets. Bullies no longer need a playground. A phone can place the entire world, in a child's pocket, And not all of that world is kind.
I want to protect you from everything. But I know I can't.
One day, you'll have to step into it yourself. And that terrifies me.
Being a dad isn't easy.
There are moments of joy, moments of pride, moments that make my heart soar, But too often, all I hear is my own self-doubt.
The voice asking whether I'm capable of raising this incredible little human.
Then you shout, "Dada!"
And suddenly none of the doubts matter.
Because you don't need a perfect dad.
You just need me.
And every day, I'll keep trying, to be enough.

It's Hot As Hell - Original Poem by SJones
It's hot as hell, my feet begin to swell, the heat makes me unwell, and I can hardly tell, if I'm melting in my garden, or trapped in some hot cell.
The sun is on a mission, it's cooking me quite well, my forehead's like a waterfall, my armpits ring a bell. The dog won't chase a tennis ball, the cat won't even yell, the birds have stopped their singing, they've all gone off to dwell.
I opened up the freezer, and stood there for a spell, my wife walked in and shook her head, "You're not doing well!"
I dream about an iceberg, a fan, a breeze, a shell, but all I've got is sunshine and a sweaty, sticky smell.
So if you need to find me, there's really not much to tell, I'll be lying on the kitchen floor... because it's hot as hell!

Things That I Do - Original song lyrics by SJones
[Verse 1]
Boots sink deep in the frozen ground
Mud on our faces
Smoke all around
You pass me bread with a shaking hand
Say
"Son, Hold tight to whatever you can"
[Chorus]
We fight the dark with borrowed light
Side by side in the broken night
If this is where our last stand lands
I’ll meet my fate with your name in my hands
Father and son in a stolen time
Two shadows stuck on the same thin line
If I fall first
If you fall too
I’ll carry you home in the things that I do
[Verse 2]
Shells write fire on a paper sky
You shout my name as the dirt flies high
We dive together in the shattered rain
Your shoulder pressed to my ribs like a chain
You say
"If I go, Boy, Don’t stand still, Walk out of this with your stubborn will"
I see the fear that you try to hide
Same brown eyes as mine
Just a little more tired
[Chorus]
We fight the dark with borrowed light
Side by side in the broken night
If this is where our last stand lands
I’ll meet my fate with your name in my hands
Father and son in a stolen time
Two shadows stuck on the same thin line
If I fall first
If you fall too
I’ll carry you home in the things that I do
[Bridge]
Morning creeps in through the wire and bones
Rats and letters and dents in our souls
You show me a picture
Creased and worn
A baby boy in your arms by the door
"That was you"
you laugh through the cold
"All the reason I ever had to grow old"
Now we’re here
Same coat
Same name
Praying this mud forgets our faces and our age
[Chorus]
We fight the dark with borrowed light
Side by side in the broken night
If this is where our last stand lands
I’ll meet my fate with your name in my hands
Father and son in a stolen time
Two shadows stuck on the same thin line
If I walk out and you’re not through
I’ll carry you home in the things that I do
(yeah) I’ll carry you home in the things that I do

Steve And The Family Indeed
Lived a kind man named Steve, a real shining star.
One sunny day, he met a lady named Eve,
A meeting so sweet, you wouldn't believe.
Steve and Eve, a match made in glee,
Decided together, a family they'd be.
They adopted two kids, oh, so dear,
James and Aimee, spreading joy and cheer.
James loved trains, with wheels that spin,
Chugging and choo-chooing, oh, what a din!
Aimee adored horses, so graceful and strong,
In fields of green, where they'd gallop along.
Together as a family, they'd dance and sing,
Sharing laughter, every little thing.
Steve and Eve, love never-ending,
With James and Aimee, joy they're sending.
In their cosy home, warmth did bloom,
Love and laughter chased away the gloom.
So, here ends the tale of Steve and Eve,
With James and Aimee, who always believe.
A story of togetherness, as happy as can be.
No matter where life's adventures may lead,
Steve, Eve, James, and Aimee - a family, indeed!

Transformers Original Rap/Poem/Lyrics? - Sjones
We are robots in disguise,
You can't touch us, because some of us can fly,
We can run, we can hide, we got the speed and the size,
Alone marooned a long way from home,
I send this message out so others know we are not alone,
Transformers, Robots in disguise,
Transformers, More than meets the eye,
We got Bumblebee, Hot Rod & Optimus Prime,
These three Autobots won't commit a crime,
There's more on the way, landing here minute by minute,
Ironhide, Jetfire, Mirage, Arcee and Ratchet,
We got Cliffjumpers, Mudflaps, Bulkheads and Jazz,
Our enemies may have numbers and be able to fly,
We are more than meets the eye,
Transformers, Robots in disguise,
Transformers, More than meets the eye,
We are the Decepticons, we are here to deceive and enslave you,
Filthy, weak humans, choose to help those we fought in war,
They don't want to save our planet, so here we are to take Earth,
This world can be harvested into Energon,
We are going to take it and enslave humanity and bring back Cybertron,
Transformers, Robots in disguise,
Transformers, More than meets the eye,
Decepticons attack, take down the Autobots with our air superiority and immense firepower,
We are Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave, Barricade,
We will kill Witwicky and take down Cade,
Shockwave, Bezerker, Frenzy, Shockwave, Ravage, Dreadwing and Lazerbeak,
Our flyers will leave you unable to speak,
When Decepticons are on the prowl the autobots hide,
Transformers, Robots in disguise,
Transformers, More than meets the eye,
Bringing the war across the stars to their new home,
Living side by side with Humans and bots battling bots,
Humans try to keep the peace, While the cybertronians call,
Til all are one!

Is It Fate or Is It Destiny?! - Original poem/lyrics by Sjones.
My shoelace was untied, you swept me off my feet,
Is it fate we meet or is it destiny?!,
Have I always been the one you were destined to meet,
Is this just some crazy coincidence you ask of me,
Well the evidence is clear for all to see,
I need you now, can you still meet me,
Two worlds apart yet we are stuck together,
Invisible strings tied to eachother,
I'm caught up in a web of my feelings,
All I want is your touch to calm me,
Just to save me you gave your all for me,
Hearing you screaming, callin for me,
Is it my fault i made you fall for me,
Is it fate we meet or is it destiny?!
When I got paired with you, in class,
Two worlds apart, years of distance,
We have the same qualities, even down to the similarities,
I need you now, can you come see me too,

Talking To A Brick Wall (original lyrics/poem) Sjones
In this world of silence, I stand alone,
Talking to a brick wall, no voice to be known.
Words fall like echoes, lost in the abyss,
Conversations held with a wall, dismissed.
(Chorus)
Oh, brick wall, won't you listen to me?
Can you hear the longing, the plea?
I pour my heart out, but you don't respond,
Talking to a brick wall, my spirit beyond.
(Verse 2)
Every word I whisper, every thought I share,
They vanish into nothingness, lost in thin air.
Emotions bouncing off your cold facade,
I wonder if you ever truly understand.
(Chorus)
Oh, brick wall, won't you listen to me?
Can you hear the longing, the plea?
I pour my heart out, but you don't respond,
Talking to a brick wall, my spirit beyond.
(Bridge)
But amidst this frustration, a realization dawns,
The brick wall may never respond with its songs.
Yet, in the depths of my heart, a change takes place,
I find solace in knowing, it's myself I embrace.
(Verse 3)
Though the wall may be silent, I won't be deterred,
I'll keep sharing my stories, my voice will be heard.
For even if the wall can't comprehend,
There's healing in expressing, a journey to mend.
(Chorus)
Oh, brick wall, won't you listen to me?
Can you hear the longing, the plea?
I pour my heart out, but you don't respond,
Talking to a brick wall, my spirit beyond.
(Outro)
So I'll keep talking, with hope in my eyes,
Even if the wall won't sympathize.
In this conversation, I find strength anew,
Talking to a brick wall, but my spirit breaks through.

I have been there (original poem) BY SJones
I have been there
The bottom of a hole
I have been there
Feeling worthless
I have been there
Pushing everyone away
I have been there
Laying on the cold floor
I have been there
Stared down the bottom of a barrel
I have been there
Stuck in a hurricane of negative thoughts
I have been there
Crippled unable to move
I have been there
Depression, I know it's name
Because I have been there.....

Gorgon Eyes - Original love song/poem by Sjones
I am frozen like a statue from your gaze,
Those beautiful lips are moving, but I don't hear any words come from your mouth,
That laugh snaps me out of the hypnosis, and I am lost for words,
What do I say, what do I do?,
I can't read the room, but I want to read you,
I want to make you smile and get lost in your gaze,
Turn me into a statue with those Gorgon eyes, and I'll make you happy for the rest of our days,
Those luscious lips, them curvy hips,
I want to be drunk on you, I want to be consumed by you,
Your silky hair and pearly whites, nothing compares to the greenery in your eyes,
Is this what it's like to fall in love, because this is new, Is that my heart?,
I can't read the room, but I want to read you,
I want to make you laugh and get lost in your gaze,
Turn me into a statue with those Gorgon eyes, and I'll make you happy for the rest of our days,
I'm taking the plunge and asking you out,
I don't know why you laughed and agree'd because I nervously knocked my drink over you,
Maybe this is just a dream, and you are not real, Who'd want to be with someone like me?,
I'm a fool, I've made mistakes, and I've been alone for my heart has been torn,
I can't read the room, They are just staring and laughing at me,
I don't like the shakes any more, I've made a mistake, and it's time to leave,
My back was against you, but I felt a pull and there you were in front of my eyes,
I am lost in those Gorgon eyes and turned to stone,
Your lips have just touched mine and I could taste fine wine,
My body is melting as the dopamine is spiralling,
I'm being taken to Neverland.
I won't be you! - Original song/poem by Sjones
I thought we were through with this?,
It's the same old story, with a different twist,
Stop being pushed around,
Push them back!,
I hear you, (yeah!),
I see you, (yeah!),
But I won't be you! (no!)
I hear you, I see you, I won't be you!
Stop resisting and let me take control,
I won't let them beat us down, (no!),
It's time now to set me free,
Wake up and face your destiny!,
For too long you have suppressed me,
In return, you have lashed out uncontrollably,
Your bodies bloodied and bruised,
Come on now and light this fuse!,
I hear you, (yeah!)
I see you, (yeah!)
But I won't be you!, (no!)
Stop resisting and let me take control,
I won't let them beat us down, (no!),
It's time now to set me free,
Wake up and face your destiny!,
What will happen when the voices stop,
Who will I become when I black out,
You hear me, you see me, and now you sleep, for now I'm here to make history!,
I'm giving out the beatings and breaking bones,
Now that I'm free you will rule this day,
I am awake and you are history!

Exorcise The Demon - Original song/poem/lyrics by SJONES
Because my soul is unbound,
My freedom comes at the expense,
Lost and alone, nowhere to go,
MARK MY WORDS,
