Status of the Lonely

I see you looking around the room hoping someone will notice your Guchi watch I see you checking yourself in the mirror to make sure your pearls are straight I also see you as a lonely soul who has no idea how to please your mind Other than buying expensive items to bring your status to acceptance What you don’t realize is you are the fool that avoids reality By purchasing the fluff in life to balance your lack of being All the glitter in the world cannot produce who you really want to be Take your uncertainness, your warped view on life, your high hill living And stash it in the trunk of your Rolls Royce and wait for someone like you You may have to wait a while as you still will not accept their friendship For they may not have what you are looking for, they may be so 2005 When you find yourself surrounded by these warped fake individuals It will be too late, for the world would have moved on without you Father time will show everyone what you are consisted of For now will be the time of your resurrection into the reality of being Either you take the opportunity to figure it out and grow up Or stay behind and enjoy the company of shadows that are cast by your wounds As true being is not what you are, but who you are I guess you have not come to your conclusion yet I guess you are so 2005
