Decrypted

9/12/21 " Becoming a free-for-all like Kill Bill Some of y'all need to pop a chill pill People displaying ill will Out for a thrill kill They say they won't, but they still will Therefore blood will spill That's all they know, since growing up in Drill Ville Life began or ended and decayed It's all starting to seem strange In the sunlight, moons glow or tree shade Do you have any idea how far we came? A struggle to behave Quick to degrade It's either you or them that is betrayed Can't re-live it, but in your mind it replayed Since you were teenage Never went as scripted Took years of practice to become gifted Puzzles and messages still that yet to be decrypted Has life from another planet ever paid Earth a visit? Always was a misfit I've been resistant And distant As well as inconsistent All the while being non-existent Shelters in good shape or abandoned and with broken boards Folks going with or against the social norms It was an omen or A good sign at the moment for Those in store The soon to be approaching storm Yet another opposing force Since far before the Trojan Horse Macedonian wars And Roman swords Treasure and junk strewn all across the ocean floors Wasn't worth it or the risk paid off when I opened doors
