All by myself feeling’ lonely as hell Like I fell in a well, no one hears me yell Someone get me out of this pit someone get me out of this shit Sorry drippin’ down my pen Bleeding out when I spit
This is a verse for the lonely When you’re hurt mission’ homies Poppin’ perks cause your’ lonely on earth It’s the worst when you immerse into solitude Your shadow is the only one who follows you The mirror is the only 1 who talks to you It eats you alive till it swallows you Wallow through feeling hollow thinking no 1 understands
God is just a man who let the illusion expand I once held love in my hands But fuck she ran And the pain snapped back like rubber bands
I am an emotionally naked mental health speaker, and author of the Book, Diary of a Broken Mind and co-author with Kim O'Brien PhD, LICSW of Emotionally Naked: A Teacher's Guide to Preventing Suicide and Recognizing Students at Risk. I raised two boys, Richard and Charles, and lost my younger son, Charles to addiction and suicide on June 5, 2015. I help people foster a culture of connection to prevent suicide, reduce substance misuse and find life after loss. My motivational mental health keynotes, training and workshop topics include suicide prevention, addiction, mental illness, anxiety, coping strategies/resilience, and grief.
As talented and funny as Charles was, letting other people know they matter was his greatest gift. And now the legacy I try and carry forward in my son's memory.

8 thoughts on “Verse for the Lonely – by Charles Aubrey Rogers”
I am a young rapper myself, just turned 16 in fact. I included your son in one of my songs. At the beginning of it, there is a tribute to him, and there are some of his lyrics in it, just to let people know how crazy good his lyrics were. I am so sorry for your loss, I feel your son and I would have been good acquaintances. RIP the soul of Charles Aubery Rogers.
Thank you for giving Charles credit. I see the number of searches for his lyrics and wonder how many times they are swiped and someone uses them as their own. But I appreciate the tribute and hope the writing and rapping helps you process your emotions like it did for charles. I included a lot of his unpublished lyrics in my first book, Diary of a Broken Mind. https://amzn.to/2pw5id8
Amazing lyrics.
I really believe he was a genius.
He wrote truth from his feelings. Uncensored.
I would save it it’s raw but not rough.
It’s real.
Yes life is rough, depression us rough and addiction is rough.
I really wish he was here, he has so much to give to the world.

Thank you. That means a lot. He was so talented.
Bomb ass lyrics guy
He was that. I just published a book and included a lot of his unpublished work in that book. He was working on his second album when he died.

What I mean is I wouldn’t say it was terribly rough. I should proofread before I hit send 🙂 And thank you for sharing
