The Corrupt Family

Here we begin our day
Forgetting we were supposed to stay
We drift in our own little ways
Making sure to take care of our own day
Barely saying a word to each other
Although if we do its yell or a holler
We backstab each other
And we would rather take of care of someone else
We act as if nothing is wrong
Pretending that reality stood still
Now I know for sure how corrupt we are
Since you would rather take care of your villain
Rather than your own 
Act is if we are monkeys
Blinded to your reasoning for your actions
But we are not as dumb as you may think 
The other two are just to small to see 
The lies behind your eyes 
Now you mite as well dig your own grave
But until then 
ill play your games
Let me pretend I’m ok
As long as we don’t have to speak
Then I’m actually gonna be alright.
