READ BETWEEN MY LINES
<p>Omo!</p><p><br/></p><p>You say you flow with the beat?</p><p>I flow with thoughts that make the beat think.</p><p>You put words on a rhythm,</p><p>I put meaning in between the lines</p><p>Until silence itself has something to say.</p><p><br/></p><p>You get bars?</p><p>I get paragraphs with prison sentences.</p><p>One line from my pen,</p><p>And your punchlines start serving consequences.</p><p><br/></p><p>No be jazz, na craftsmanship.</p><p>I no just write words, </p><p>I give ordinary letters extraordinary assignments.</p><p><br/></p><p>English na my discipline,</p><p>But expression na my territory.</p><p>I fit use one simple sentence</p><p>Tell a story wey go outlive a library.</p><p><br/></p><p>Anybody fit rhyme,</p><p>But can you make a stranger feel a story</p><p>they have never lived?</p><p><br/></p><p>Anybody fit write,</p><p>But can you make a reader pause</p><p>And question everything they once believed?</p><p><br/></p><p>Now, let's talk royalty.</p><p><br/></p><p>I no need a palace to feel royal,</p><p>My imagination get enough rooms</p><p>To accommodate a thousand untold stories.</p><p><br/></p><p>Kings may inherit kingdoms,</p><p>But writers create worlds.</p><p><br/></p><p>A king rules over people,</p><p>A writer enters their minds.</p><p>And sometimes, one sentence from a writer</p><p>Fit survive generations of time.</p><p><br/></p><p>So, bring your beat.</p><p>Bring your bars.</p><p>Bring your finest metaphors.</p><p><br/></p><p>I'll bring my pen.</p><p><br/></p><p>Let's see who can make language dance,</p><p>Who can make intelligence rhyme,</p><p>Who can turn a few seconds of sound</p><p>Into something that survives the test of time.</p><p><br/></p><p>Because I'm not just trying to sound intelligent,</p><p>I'm trying to make intelligence sound interesting.</p><p><br/></p><p>I am Marsal.</p><p>A writer by craft,</p><p>A student of language,</p><p>An architect of imagination.</p><p><br/></p><p>I don't just put pen to paper;</p><p>I put thought on trial,</p><p>Give truth a microphone,</p><p>And make every word answer</p><p>For the meaning it carries.</p><p><br/></p><p>So, when next you hear me flow,</p><p>Don't just count my rhymes.</p><p>Read between my lines.</p><p>Because the beat may end,</p><p>The microphone may go silent,</p><p>And the crowd may move on,</p><p>But my words will keep speaking</p><p>Long after my voice is gone.</p>
