Felt Right
6/5/22
As a living organism
For a long time had no pot to piss in
Minimal optimism
Until I finally found wisdom
It all became different
Yet at the same time it didn't
Due to a glitch in the system
Another box of tricks
F*** all these politics
Before an apocalypse
I got to take a lot of risk
Otherwise I will not win
A better outlook, higher intelligence and more positive
Eventually I want kids
For them I've got to live
I'll always be there to talk with them
Get them family pets like a dog and fish
Bake them cookies that are chocolate chip
Build them a treehouse with my all I offer it
To me it's worth it in the end, instead of a crock of s***
A daily battle to stack my dough up
It's urgent that I cut back and slow up
Half the time I feel like I want to throw up
It's no bluff
Know what
Just means I got to grow up
And show up
I'll always be there for them, because I want to see them grow up
Buy them their own stuff
When it all gets 'so tough'
I'll help them out so that it won't suck
I'll teach and show much
For example to not treat others like they're below us
It's been one hell of a fight
I'll never give up in order to give them the best life
In this life of mine, it's the only thing that's felt right
