Well Hi, good night to you, or should I say morning
cause its three am and I've been up all night mourning
whats that? you didn't ask? I know I really do sound so boring
but to be fair with you its really tough when you're alone in these four walls while everyones out "scoring"
I had a nice long talk with my momma and with my dad
about me having some drinks while I also took a drag
it was scary, I felt a deep chill inside
but not the kind of chill you would feel when you got your man and Netflix by your side
how is your man by the way, forgive me I forgot to remind myself to say
did it work, the advice i gave you I mean, did you convince him to stay?
i'm so so so so truly sorry that It all didn't work out
I mean he did push you out and did so partially for the clout
he lent his ears to his friends, and went down the wrong bend, he threw a massive u-turn
he threw it away he didn't stay and just let it all burn
I mean, I can't say much as I've made mistakes too
but who is anyone to say that my future is at stake too?
you think I don't know the consequences of my own actions and deeds?
I live my life in such a way to ensure i'm not hanging by the tree
in the park near your house where I slept in when it got really dark
I lay staring at the bark when suddenly SHARK
it swims, circling around me, it would love to take a bite
but I wanna see the light, oh how I wanna see the light
at the end of this tunnel, the shark is gonna catch me
you know lets all blame it on this fucked up society
its really their fault I have become who I really don't wanna be
i've become the wannabe who doesn't really want to be
now I'll leave you all with another thought of mine
just a bit of insight, a mere few lines
I just strive to be benign, while its difficult to shine
I feel my spine is unaligned cause i'm confined to this...
why is it that you find, lying supine is just fine
as long as it is tied with another body and not mine
the very body you called mine when we became intertwined
I just feel i am inclined to help people realign
I think that is my problem, that I give all of my time
to too many at a time, to the wrong people in my life
I see now, sometimes life can be a lie, like illusions to the eye
they have contributed to why I may have lost my mind
thank you
