A Smile

A smile is supposed to be real, not fake
But instead, people think that they can just take
Even when someone takes their life, just with the hold of a very sharp knife
Once you start bleeding, you'll soon be needing
A hug from a loved one, cuz without it you're done
I know I'm sounding, like I'm drowning
The truth is I am, and I feel like damn
I'm not lying, when saying I'm dying
Cuz I feel like hell, trapped in a cell
Without any luck, I feel so stuck.
It's R.I.P, now you see what its like to be me
I feel this stress, so, I need some test
But with this mess, I really need some rest.
Lying in bed,  in my head
Already I feel dead.
I don't want a gun, I just need to run
But every time I try, I just want to cry
Feeling like pain, it drives me insane
I don't want to whelp, but I need the help
I know I need saving, cuz I hate caving
Into depression.
I hate the expression, because friends come and go, but you know what though, the real ones stay.
Even if you say, I don't need you because they know what you've been through
They'll be there forever, and never let you say never.
I tried to OD, but that’s not me
I know I’m strong.
My mind can be wrong yet I needed time to think
But then i would sink,l ike a sinking ship
With a little rip.
I wanted to ride, yet I feel like I’m tide
I become more sicker, when I'm triggered.
I feel like ing  and my heart has been ripped
Take some bullets, grab a gun, pull the
trigger, now I'm gone
I was done with life but I didn't want to die,
so, I grab the knife but I only make a letter saying goodbye. But I put it to the side and start to cry.
I feel so trapped and so very crappy but I start rap about my feelings.
My depression is very aggressive so make myself progressive and I start testin myself.
I'll feel like drowning when I'm down and on the ground so I start making my rounds.
My Demons won't be seein
