Senseless Suffering
1/27/23
Remaining a junkie
Continually spending money
Like a dummy
Life ain't always sweet like honey
It's cold not always sunny
They're out for bloodshed, so it turned bloody
They're still racist full of hatred so times got ugly
When push comes to shoving
I'm covering much ground, important matters I'm touching
Still so many bluffing
My family so out of touch with one another, it's disgusting
I've had difficulty with trusting
And an even harder time with loving
I speak truth not bluffing
They continued fussing
These intentions were good-for-nothing
I felt differently, so I put my feelings toward something
It ended up being drink and drugs, instead of nothing
It's not a great thing, but I'm not just huffing and puffing
I'm often buzzing
Taking my time not always rushing
I'm not budging, through sludge continually trudging
Like the cover of a book, ladies quickly judging
Getting shown little love, no wonder I've been bugging
Not until tragedy hits do they come closer and begin hugging
All this endless and senseless suffering
The population continues to boom at the reproduction rate of bunnies
Rarely do I play pool
You thought I stayed a fool
Okay cool
You lose
This has nothing to do with school rules
It's global way beyond Honolulu
For a good cause or doodoo
