Let Me Give It To You Straight
It seems to me perhaps you're in desperate need of attention
But what you lack to see will be the dagger in your perception
The promised lies of men have been but a crutch in your development
Leaving a trail of dried-up husks of an ambitious self-experiment
Is it risk-versus-reward or a sense of self-empowerment
I implore you on the former as the latter yields discouragement
May i strongly recommend for you a dose of life experience
Listen closely then apply and your strength will know no hindereance
Many have littered aimlessly only to suffered to their hells
Primarily due to uncitely influence and a lack of any brain cells
Elders always know you see and can guide you on your path
How foolish to assume in youth, lest you cherish the ways of psychopaths
