In the Cut
4/3/22
Just trying to live it up
But still in the cut
Used to be bothered, now I hardly give a f***
Your attitude and outlook about as useful as bird s***
You need to learn quick
Nobody is perfect
True love we all deserve it
But your actions left another burned bridge
Use to be, but no longer allergic
It all use to be nothing, never would concern this
But it all I eventually came to terms with
By having a firm grip
During a difficult battle, the tables I turned and flipped
It involved laundry detergent
And a tourniquet
Across the Earth a shift
This is factual not anecdotes
Worldwide, not just across the Alaskan coast
Still sad that folks
Brag and boast
Not focused on what matters most
Over the years
Not always crystal clear
And all that it appears
All these chipmunks
And others out to trick us
Too many witch hunts
Occurring constantly every six months
Don't think that all of it sucks
Never give up
Remember you only live once
I put on some swim trunks
Drank out of a big cup
And the only thing I could think of
Was making some big bucks
