Back To Sipping

7/7/22 At first it's uplifting Just want the best for family and friends while living I'd be content to enjoy a meal with them for thanksgiving Meanwhile time continues ticking As there is a battle for control through laws and restricting They attempt population control yet it's growing not thinning Since the beginning Took occasional L's, but mostly winning Even when it goes to extra innings I'm not grinning I see all this B.S. in the fine printing Someone guilty tried to frame another with false evidence they were pinning Is that what you'd call sinning? In pools of money constantly swimming Never once going back to smoking trimming Potential still brimming Yet I overdo it with drugs and alcohol therefore my head is spinning I dived deep instead of on the surface just skimming Paying for stupid like government tax and shipping Still all these schmucks having others do their own bidding I want no part, I'm dipping Back to sipping From reality I'm drifting You must be tripping I'm the wrong one to be whipping Because in the end you'll be limping As blood continues dripping No trace ever found despite originally existing People always gossiping and flipping Over every little thing Time flies by always zipping Loss of footing, but refuse to be slipping Regaining composure at it again after getting a better gripping I'm back to chiseling and chipping Just do the math Life's always moving fast Not ready for it then you'll lose and crash Now how true is that?
