The Pitch

I have a story
A story to tell
About how life
Is hard as hell
It didn't come
With whistle or bells
It sure ain't no ***ing fairy tail
The life they live
Is fake as hell
Nothing but lies
They try to sell
The glory
The fame
The money
The game
The devil's work all the same
You must listen 
as I try to explain
There's a fine line 
between insanity and sane
Life is too short 
for misery and pain
And there's only two ways 
you can play this game
1. Live by him
Hallowed be thy name
Trials tribulations
Hardship and pain
But not unnoticed
And never in vain
2.    Life of lives
Whistles and bells
A fake ass life
A ****ing fairytale
Trust and believe
That sin is plenty
In your heaven of hell
But this I bet
You will not prevail
Take what you will
From this story I tell
Positivity respect
love and heart
Is what my story
Has to sell
