As An Adolescent

I'm not invincible, I zoned out and I began over thinking, Unlike a dilated pupil shrinking, I was untamed between blinking Thinking dark thoughts, trying to build a fence but my chain wasn't linking, So I found a pen and some paper and I went straight to the inking 13 years old and I had already tasted of the manic depression, Ready to session, and drown with the Leviathan now I'm stressing, Forget the lesson, I raised myself with nothing but a question, How to survive by myself, so I dropped being a kid and I left it I picked up a pen before I learned multiplication math, So realize that these are more than emotions when I start to rap This is dedication, pens turn to swords when they feel my wrath, The knight in shining armor, with a sinister laugh They say I'm, schizophrenic because I hold the horizon still Or maybe because I took metaphors in the form of a pill But whatever he reason, I still hover over them with skill So get ready to climb a mountain, and watch me walk over hills

I tend to over think as well. It's both a blessing and a curse of the writer... ideas, emotions, concepts... they come straight out of the clear blue sky and we just can't concentrate until they are visible in front of us... in the form of concrete words. It's better than "under thinking" though... living life without rhyme or reason... it just seems unhealthy to me *shrugs*...
