Kiwaru
I burnt some beans
While trying to lose my sadness
To a playlist made to numb hopelessness
and a lack of power
Tell me why
I made progress
And enjoyed its gladness
Then one look at the game's giants
And my future is full of darkness
I sing
To stop tears from stinging
I shout
To stop my voice from fading
I do
To stop my worth from draining
I cry
Because my dreams are nothing
