Honestly

Honestly.      
I'm dealing with a lot of things that bother me.
I'm fiending at the weekends, just to break up the monotony.
There's gotta be..
A better way to deal, so what you got for me? 
A lot of steps to take so I can make it as a prodigy. 

Its hard to see. 

My visions clear, but not the path to take. 
I revel in my dreams, I try to live them out when I'm awake. 
I'm circling the scene, give me a chance, give me a ing break. 
And take away the negativity, I'm done with all the snakes. 

I try to stay sane, 
but I feel my mental health decline. 
Forever questioning if I can stabilise my state of mind. 
I try to find a piece of paradiso on the path that winds, 
As times go by, I wonder will I ever spread my wings and fly? 

Its fine. 

I'm sure I'll figure out which way to go. 
My heart has found a home and now it's open there's no letting go. 
I found a way to cope, I'm full of hope, I want my soul to grow. 
I'll take away the mask, accept the past,
And let my feelings show.







And Honestly, 
I'm stressing, as I question my reality. 
I'm fighting with my demons, 
as I try to keep my sanity.
Humanity, 
Is doomed, forever losing its morality. 
A generation driven, 
by their self obsessive vanity.
It's hard to be,
A decent person in this way of life.
Coz children of today ,
They go to school, hiding a pocket knife.
So how the hell did this become normality?
The darker skies.
We're living in societal insanity,
The great divide.

I try to stay sane,
But I don't know why I ing try.
We blindly pay our taxes,
While the rain of death falls from the sky.
They justify their actions, 
While ignoring all the mothers cries. 
They said its for our freedom,  
Knowing damn well that's a blatant lie.

This isn't fine.

We need to figure out a better way.
Love is all we need to help us break free from the darker days.
Love is all we need to find our peace, 
And it could start today.
Love is all we need to share, 
To make the world a better place.
