I Can Take It--

I can take it Even If I must fake it I can take it Even if I am socially naked I can take it Even if I don't get to be famous I can take it Even if I hear I love u like u don't mean it I can take it Even if the system rules on the plaintiff I can take it Even if I'm losing my emotional status I can take it Even if I must brave it I can take it Even if food ain't given n my stomach remains vacant I can take it Even if I don't rob or steal for a roach infested couch or building stripped to the brick naked I can take it Even if I hide it from the Mrs that that happens N I lie so as to not make her cry n she gets pissed becuz of it I can take it Even if everyday I'm alone looking for msgs to come but won't I can take it Even if these same clothes I wear I marinate in them til my skin is imprinted I can take it Even if old haunts taunt n run rapid over my brain getting comfortable making hammocks I can take it Even if I must constantly prove my worth to myself to over turn this feeling of being cursed at birth n show exactly how the lord work his works by making an example outa this unworthy piece of dirt I can take it Even if I must rip my flesh off with every breath n talk to parents about being adults N vault their feelings of good times lost I can take it Even if I was hit with a brick of slander every minute n pricked with 1000needles of venomous blood from hypocrites I can take it Even if I don't make it I can take it Even if it takes my last breath to proclaim it I can take it Even if I don't become famous I can take it Even if ......I can take it ......keep moving on ppl.......Peace
