Add It Up
deception lurks everwhere
inside glass houses if you dare
we say i swear but thats a lie
innocent only are babies when they cry
paranoid delusions even voices too
everyone has them including me and you
fraud and greed is a poor mans dream
life is really what it seems
sewing your truths and your facts
not caring how the naxt man will react
religion sex even mental health
doesnt determines ones greatness in wealth
rich or poor or just getting by
why do they choose to end it and die
running the streets or raising a family
ill take you there if you wanna dare me
people discriminate and start race wars
death is something for which theres no cure
ignorance has no shape or color
you can be that or choose the other
we used to be born to freedom
now were subject to pay
sex lies and underage drinking
do we blame it on our kids say there not thinking
fighting over another mans jewels
leads to killing and both of you loose
poems songs or free lance writers
coming together growing tighter
this rhyme is about lifes little things
only you know how much you bring
