Hard Knock Life
HARD KNOCK LIFE
Today thoughts are uncontrollably flying in my head
Pounding as they crush land
And they are all in assortment
Not a single one is an entertainment
Ringing like a patient on some strong drug
As I lay on my old rag
I have got to get out and be free
Can I go with this thought from these many thoughts of craziness
Indulging to have me have ecstasy on crack
Trust me, I can easily get a pack
Don't judge me nor should you judge anyone
We all have been here
Trapped and in fear
In a house whose windows are shuttered
Doors tattered
Vulnerable
No hope for tomorrow
It's a hard knock life
Always pushing this wheel barrow
For a penny to heal my hunger
Am I exaggerating when I say things are hard and am hard hit
My pit has never been this darkest
Worse still deepest!
