Today

what a life when you live trife,make your choices and blame them on voices in your 
head,made your own bed.
now you lie in a lonely world guilty of being what everyone thinks.
dreams of a life beautiful and safe,only places and time are never the same.
though ways are alike and people are kind they'll turn around and tell you your outta your 
mind.
we all have to choose our rights from wrongs,prolong the inevitable,creating a mess.
convincing the world we didnt do it when we know we did.
my palms are sweaty i was born ready standing on a curb catching my balance.
wanting more getting less,correcting the misconceptions of political fakes,no difference just 
injust.
many have it all yet really have nothing some have nothing yet want no more.
nothings ever what it seems,reality check in the mail,neighbors creeping trying to steal.
high five to a stranger wink to yourself,go to a lawyer claim your wealth.
