Quit Or Keep Going
They say I’m not sick
They say being molested and raped is okay
You’ll get better
But it happens everywhere
The television hides so much
I can’t stand the judge making fun of those
With mental disorders and
We use useless hobbies as a way to cope
With pain
We use sadness and silence
To sleep thru the cold
We use the knowledge no one uses anymore
I stand alone
With millions of things that are left untold
Karma is an elevator and we’re not on it
The flowers you cut for decorations
Have become black ashes
Like a man wrapped in bombs
With not everlasting paradise
A family living under pressure
An choose lying and oppression
Adults lie to children
Why do they question who knew first
Why is the government ran by people that act like president
Suicides they’re number one motive
Assasination at its lowest
Sicknesses after sicknesses
Bodies burn and nightmares occur while your awake
You won’t get any sleep
Watch how you treat the poor because they’re rich from heart like blood that can be used as ink for art
An tears that drop endlessly
Where’s the calmness and where is the freedom
It’s only in the dark where I hear bombs go off an earthquake that don’t gotta stop
