Real Talk

Everyone knows how to age 
But no one knows how to grow up.
We all know how to throw smoke
But when we have to be on time 
We don’t show up. 

People have forgotten their faith
In exchange for being that next 
Person to really blow up 
On social media because 
All they care about is the glow up.
