I Do I Don'T

The average American makes no deductions
Throwing normal people off with assumptions
Money runs the government designates production
I don’t see the point, anymore, I see with my gumption.

I’m using my life to make more connections
I do it in a way no one sees the corrections
Similar to words in dreams like inception
Never forget the idea that others had mentioned.

Never have other sentences meant less
The hate and the love they all are senseless.
All my tears and fears in a hypothetical pensive
Knowing all my time on this place is expensive.

I see people’s eyes open and close to the music
Everyday it pushes and pulls peoples movements
Nothing more that anyone can do to prove this.
This country IS blood and greed its ruthless.

My talents go unnoticed like chemical imbalance
Sometimes we fall, an excuse for the violence?
Yet its impossible to constantly keep a balance
There is no way I will continue to be silenced

For now I’ve adjusted myself to explaining
To myself our life, I’m living life’s main themes
I paint pictures with words like a painting
Please listen close to this criteria containing
ACTORs Or AGENTS
These rhymes won’t make sense
Unless you have patience….
