Alot of Distrust


The world has loads of unwanted things

Things that we think make us happy

Our trust has been broken

Broken like broken records our beloved Michael had done time &time again

Our lives have seen enough

This man makes me feel discomfort in my own house; somebody outta tell that discomfort is just a STEP above distrust

The nation of today built a so called " gold mine'' that don't even carry a shred of platinum

There's alot of distrust in the world today

We can't even sell lemonade on our front porch no more without racial slurs being thrown at us

What do we do to fight this issue? We kill one another, We steal from each other..

WHAT THE HELL DOES THIS SOLVE!? NOTHING

If you're going to fire a bullet make sure you hit the bullseye instead of a dreaming bird flying freely

                                There's alot of distrust in the world today...
