Fruit loops and laced boots
Wild
Like a musical henchmen In zoot suits
I loot lutes
And sometimes I feel like the whole world is mad at me
What happened T
Held a rose too close it decomposed
Sudden death catastrophe
Chemical imbalance broke the ballast
Cheer the cup to the sky full a dopamine
Mental health challis full of whatever ya want it to be
I still dream
About the days lost,
self double crossed no matter the cost
My own worst enemy knows what's next
like a nihilistic kamikaze putting themself to the test
I digress
*And obsess my mess like it's best to stay stressed
And confess
Like itll do a god damn thing
doing the same thing over and over is textbook insanity
A calamity in my mind about words left behind and things better off unsaid
Unread, forgotten, relearned
No concern
These are just some thoughts from my head
As the world turns
And cities burn
Stomachs churn we learn we live in a hateful place
of broken ideas cracked like glass in the windshield but it's the human race
It's like I'm looking down from space
Birdseye view works too
But maybe it isn't for you
When you lose faith and realize that we are at fault and theres nothing you can do
We are all screwed nothing new
We've been at it for years
Media creating and recycling fears
But now we got a leader that's more of a political overseer
To split us down the middle
Now no need to be civil
They used to mask their hate in metaphors
Now we cant even get them to riddle a little
Belittle each other and set a fucking bomb off
Our social construct is rickety and the people at the top about to fall off
I dont think it's up to osha standards but who's enforcing anyway cough cough
And speaking of sick
Here we are in a pandemic with half a county that doesnt believe in it
In a sea of it hospitals full as the beaches
Money still lines their pockets even in death they find a way to profit I'd be speechless
But i cant sit back and watch my industry die
Wear a fucking mask and stop complaining
Really dude, it's draining
Tired of explaining the simplicity of the idea of containing a disease so the economy can survive and keep on sustaining
And if you're still listening
Black Lives Matter
Finally the world is talking and it's all good chatter
Like privilege is real, not everyone was born with a upper class ladder
What's a matter, you think your Hopes are dreams are shattered
While you hide behind a keyboard with your Confederate flag banner
You say heritage not hate but you grew up north
In a cul de sac suburb life never been to war
Never left your home never traveled before
The world you ignore is the cure for your bore
Dumb
So stop being stupid, yeah you've hit hard times
But have you had to fight for your life
And if so was it every day and night
Profiled for just trying to get by
You really think it needs to be about you right?
But the focus is on them for everything theyve endured dont say that they're wrong
You've got lots to learn
Like putting down words to connect with someone who feels like you
Like this anyone can do
But these words mine
We will stay true and never back down
we are all fighting battles but we are all fighting on the same ground
I'm bound
And you are too
