Hear Me Out
I've got a lot to say, will you take the time to hear me out?
It doesn't matter if I'm someone you hate or someone you care about
Will you call me a coward if I speak on what I'm scared about?
Will you take the time to hear me out?
How do I start when I'm not exactly sure where my minds at?
I'm trying to figure my feelings out and make my rhymes match
I fell down so far that I'm just starting to climb back
I'm unsure if I love poetry or if I just use it as a time pass
I enjoy rhyming, but am I actually good at it?
I put my name out there and they just throw mud at it
Should I find another love?, is poetry my true calling?
The words I put on the page is the equivalent to tears falling
I'm sorry for speaking about my depression in most of my poetry
Should I stop talking about being bipolar & being unavailable emotionally?
So many questions, most of which are rhetorical
I'm in strip clubs a lot, while trying to find love, which isn't logical
Am I wrong for speaking like that? And being so honest?
Do you respect my honesty or does it make you want to vomit?
I'm sorry because I'm the furthest thing from perfect
I feel safe in danger, but being around friends makes me nervous
I don't care about trends or what's Popular right now
In a week or two that fashion trend will die down
Judge me for being different, but you're All the same
Forget being a society puppet i'd rather have my Own brain
I don't want to know Who's dating who or what's trending on twitter
I couldn't care less about which Kardashian's ass is bigger
Tell them to sell something without having to get naked
Then every bad word I've said about them I promise to erase it
I've got a lot to say, will you take the time to hear me out?
It doesn't matter if I'm someone you hate or someone you care about
Will you call me a coward if I speak on what I'm scared about?
Will you take the time to hear me out?
