Cry Me a River

Examining the measure of my calamity I grow resentful and I inflict pain Seeking to surrender all that possesses me I lash out at the innocent which discloses my shame I reach out The intensities of my suffering I shelve out Because my quantity is so immense I become incoherent Chaos is my universal place My ferociousness becomes timid Eternity my expected release date Society has snatched me by the choker My community flames an uproar Makes me want to cry…. Makes me want to holler What are we fighting for!? Each morning I rise to the same ole tune The classic sound Of the lowdown blues I have not delivered my hopes nor my dreams My objectives along with my ambitions has went from flares to flickers To face another tomorrow makes me quiver I am distressed from authenticating my history Cry me a river!
