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
