Insanity By Kaylah Wade

Back then I never noticed it
and now I guess I'm over it
I should have quoted it then later re read it
can't say that I regret it Because I'm glad I learned the lesson
I could never trust one
fear none
I'd always block it out so I'd never hear one
the story goes in one ear and out the other
how she so brown with a light skin mother
they would ask but I'd never give answers
Ironic to smoke blacks grandfather died from Cancer
Is that the only way to cope with the pain
prescription bottles everywhere just to maintain
to be normal is a shame so I had to look further
Mind fuzzed up brain fried like a murder
Many scrambled thoughts still surface through my head
Looking for my purpose before pronounced dead
to the generation headed down the drain
pick your head up
read a book
write it out
stay sane
