Bring him back


So,
Tell me you're going to always be here..... You respond.
OK fine so tell me you're going to make it easier..... You respond.
OK fine so tell me no matter what I do, you'll never ever judge me.... You respond.
You've got all the answers don't you?
But see the rhetoric of my words that coincide don't mean a thing since you act so viciously against my soul. You've affected my family, you've affected my home... You will harm me no longer.
How dare you sit there devilish as you are to tell me I will amount to no zenith without your presence. Little do you know My pigmentation defined my success since my 9 month crowning day, and the rich melanin in my skin tells my I am a Prince. And the rich melanin in my skin tells me I am Worthy. And the rich melanin in my skin tells me I am strong. NOT YOU. 
You've taken enough from me, but you wont take me! 
Understand that my Divine roar will suffocate your petty pathological hold you exert into this world. PCP, Cocaine, Marijuana, Ecstasy... They sing a sweet tune. The beat may be appealing but their lyrics sing in negativity scale. They sing "I'm taking your life for hostage".
They sing and sing when really I just want my best friend back.
When really I just want our childhood back to when we said "never ever in a billion..."
When really I just want my old life back.
When really I just wanted to smile at the end of this and say it was all a joke but, it's not
When really I wish I could call you and say I miss you man, and that I wanted you to come back,
But really you're too far gone and I wish you didn't have to be. I wish it didn't have to be.
