You Were Never Born
When you were first created
It feels as if you'v been alive since the beginning of time
You were around when the dinosaurs walked the Earth
You'v been over filled with wisdom
That has tested the lengths of time
You were that first grain of sand
Waiting night and day for someone to pick you up and put you in their pocket for safe keeping
You'v been here longer than the sun
You were once the sun
But as quickly as you started
You burned out
You'v seen with your unopened eyes that there is no God or Devil
That's just a human concept
There was no such thing as the four seasons
The Earth was flat
But still you found your self floating for miles
There were no clouds no rain
The sky stayed a dull grey
The plants were all bare
But no one was cold
The animals haven't even risen from the ground yet
You received vast knowledge to comfort others
Just none of your own
Been taught to be humble
But still you'v managed to go backwards from nature
Was suppost to feed your soul
To many holes to mend
Been sending out mixed messages
Your just as confusing to the eyes
But what or who taught you to be so self destructive?
Con artist, lyre, manipulative, secretive, addict
It was embedded in you since birth
You had no way around it
Is this a life sentence?
Sure as hell feels like it
Do you really even have more control than you think you do?
Go over to the exit door and say good bye
Forever to be placed into a trance
Just been one big wives tale
Nothings real
But the pain of sorrow
Your wells all dried up
Have no more crocodile tears to shed
Off a layer of skin
Pick until you'v reached bone
That's your identity
To busy playing the role as the sick one
With the unstable thoughts
Were you even taught how to love?
Your unsure of yourself
But you think you have an understanding
Again just none towards yourself
Filled with wrath of self hatred
That boiled over when you were in the womb
Maybe you were already exposed to negative vibrations
Being vulnerable and to weak to defend yourself
You got built in a weak immune system
No way to fight off the evil spirits
