Rainy Days Continued
5/4/22
Under the stars we'd sleep out
At night we'd sneak out
To another party up the street, just like that we out
Catch you red handed for trying to creep out
You'll struggle to breathe out
In need of help but can't seek out
Because of being soon to bleed out
Get if off your chest and speak out
I respect ya'll for trying to reach out
I've been in a hidden sanctuary with a sign that says "KEEP OUT"
In this world a long way to go or soon to peace out
Whether or not it correlates from a freak out
From it all there is a way that I see out
Close and far from the San Andreas Fault
Take it personally or with a grain of salt
If you always see the same results
Can't say the aim was small
There's always somebody trying to make the call
Another plan to take it all
But it relies on the main assault
It's been painted on walls
Not every soul wants to play ball
Content to just see the rain fall
No matter if what they made was small
Because they stayed enthralled
And gave their all
I think today I'll
Take all
And obtain all
Regardless of if I may fall
They all
Say a lot, but words no longer cut like a chain saw
It's always gotten way raw
For survival animals and human may claw
Toward a way out they gnaw
Why's it always gotta be on Tuesday?
No, there's nothing else to say
I don't got the time today
You're going down a dead end not a two-way
Remember there can be a price to pay
Since Y2K
No need for me to pray
Over time the material began to frey
For most I was too strange
Yet too brave
It gave a toothache, as it all started to shape
Turning feral, I'm becoming too stray
It's really not that big of a quandary
Quit airing out your laundry
Have you any idea honestly?
It all use to taunt me
And haunt me
I'm now free, can't possibly
Let it all bother me
Regardless of any who wronged me
I hold on strongly
Sometimes the intentions were lofty
And ever so costly
Yet worth it in the end during the odyssey
Now I'm constantly
Off three
And strong tree
Looking awfully frosty
It all is not beyond me
I'm not concerned about anything godly
Or omni
With me don't get all crotchety
Watch how you talk to me
You're barking up the wrong tree
There's no animosity
Just a change in velocity
Despite all my generosity
What has it gotten me?
Just typical commodities
Yet no true answer to our biology
Despite all the years of technology
Still lives living in despair with no equality
Due to stupid ass policies
In order to impact economies
And for their to be monopolies
