The most painful thing is losing yourself in the process of loving someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too.

⬛The Edge⬛

Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.

~Anais Nin~

Entrance(d)

I miss listening. Waiting for clues. Whispers of news. Long past over due. Said I’m done playing their fool. And by their self serving rules. Not much left for me and you. When we’re busy living Just to prove. That we’re worthy Of basic human decency. I’m tired of seeing these scenes on TV. Robotic parrots all screaming the same things. When no one really sees the discourse that it brings. And the minds that it leads.

I can’t close my eyes to these lies. As I hear the people's cries. Salvation so easily denied. Because it’s easier to deny then try To fix this fucking circus.

Rape us and take from us. Stroking our fears But your lives are made by us. What do we get in return? Balance the scales Don’t have time for those tales What goes up must come back…

Yea, you know the rest And it’s about time I get this All off my chest. Fighting and screaming Til I don’t have much left. And there you are - Lights, camera, action Some sort of so called star.

But you don’t light up the night. Most times - not so bright. Stop and look around It’s yourself you continue to fight. But it’s alright. Got me here To shine a little light On this fucked up thing we call life. These chains cut like butter With the dullest knife. Cause the shit they’re doing Ain’t right.

Got people robbing me. Living in poverty. And it’s probably Because we’re ingrained to Worship false idols. Nothing new under the Sun. And I’ve only just begun To unravel this trickery That they’ve spun. So delicately around our heads As we were fast asleep in our beds. Compounding more for us To wake up and dread. Tranced minds are much easier To be led. Just listen to What’s not being said.

More money for war As more homeless and refugees Are dropped at their doors And they still lie About what they’re even fighting for. But sign up your kids. Follow suit. Lace up your boots. It’s what your parents did. While others cut corners And hid.

Babies sent to war And returned burned. What did they learn? The world is a cold place When you play by those rules. So easy to subdue. Pretty soon we’ll have newborns in school Backpacks full of drool. Abused by more parroting fools. Or the lost ones Shooting up the schools. With nothing to lose.

But more money for war. It’s not your children We’re fighting for. Got these greedy pigs at the top Just gotta have more And feed the demon. Sure, I read the lore. That means I also know What’s in store.

From all the bricks. Picking up my sticks. Barely on my feet And you keep taking more licks. Your gluttony Makes me sick. And I’m okay with justice Being swift. Walls fall and truths lift. No more pleading the fifth. We’ll read your rights While we read your heart.

Heart vs. feather You read the script. You thought it changed Cause you gone and done a few Magic tricks. Call that dumb as dicks. Silly pricks. When I done wrong I got my ass whipped With a switch. What do you think Your creator will pick? As the devil’s dogs Lick their lips. I came here to sink ships.

Won’t drop names That’s not my game. Just know one way You’ll have your fame. Thought I was alone. More than 2 can play that game. Take a step back. Let me show you How I came.

Confidence

What does it take to just be Do I sit like this, do I look like that What does it take to just be From the cuts on my wrist to my backwards cap What does it take to just be Do I ball up my fists, do I have to fight back What does it take to just be From the marks on my hips to imperfections and fat What does it take to just be Do I walk in the trap just to get my face slapped What does it take to just be From my eyes now bruised black and the cuts on my back What does it take to just be Do I have to react just to stop the attacks What does it take to just be Me?
