The Maiz Land (Corn Maze)
07/11/2016
As all kids do, from time to time I got in trouble. I started leaving out. It really wasn’t running away because I wasn’t planning on moving somewhere. Where we lived in the burbs, it was like the last suburb before the country. This particular day I was extremely upset and felt that I was being treated unfairly. I took a very long walk. I walked so far I got out to the farmland. It was in the middle of the wintertime so I walked through the cornfields. I actually ran into a heard of deer. We all froze and stared at eachother for what seemed like forever, my feet were freezing because I left out with no socks. I was by the creek.

They keep on saying
They ain’t playing
That they won’t let me live
I know how it is
I will not stake you
I’ll just plant for my kid
Welcome to the maiz land
Where I stand and view herds of deer
Might think it’s fake
Like we not from the lake
But my fam is from right here
Needed to sow
And I needed to grow
Cause in the corn maze
I never get lost
I’ve had these ears
Throughout the years
Like the crows
Come and bite them off
Wandered in the snow
And I did not know
If the land would let me live
Then I saw the herd
And they did not move
So something’s got to give
Welcome to the maiz land
Where I stand and view herds of deer
Might think it’s fake
Like we not from the lake
But my fam is from right here
Needed to sow
And I needed to grow
Cause in the corn maze
I never get lost
I’ve had these ears
Throughout the years
Like the crows
Come and bite them off
Could it have been my old name
I ascended as a child
Somehow I got lots of tame
And I ended up buck wild
Needed to sow
And I needed to grow
Cause in the corn maze
I never get lost
I’ve had these ears
Throughout the years
Like the crows
Come and bite them off
I’ve been searching high and low
So be quiet or you’ll
Scare it away
If you hear the hunters
On the other side
Then you never quite caught
The game
Welcome to the maiz land
Where I stand and view herds of deer
Might think it’s fake
Like we not from the lake
But my fam is from right here
Needed to sow
And I needed to grow
Cause in the corn maze
I never get lost
I’ve had these ears
Throughout the years
Like the crows
Come and bite them off
