LOOK AT ME NOW

LOOK AT ME NOW

This careless and cruel world

These dirty and evil creatures

They were there watching

Watching my mother go all the way

All the way down the grave

I saw their tears

I couldn’t tell

Look at me now

A fool to believe they felt the pain

I was too blind to see

Couldn’t see the intention behind the tears

Now they rejoice

Look at me now

With the treasure she left me with

It took me so deep

Deep in the pit of hell

Now I feel the coldness of the streets

Look at me now

All the kindness drained

I said…

Look at me now

I hurt others

Just to put a drop of honey in my stomach

Because …

No prayers or empty promises

 Can satisfy an empty stomach
