Shine

April 12, 2016

Dining with the enemy but I still gotta eat

I just jepordize my feelings everytime we meet

I see you got what I want and I cant seem to grasp

I try to keep up in this race yet I come in last

Choking on my words like Im hyperventilating

Wish I had some substance feeling mutilated

Left out when I just want in

Like the demon felt after his last sin

Sent down like the cast away

Lucy loved him but he also had his own way

I feel like I just want acceptance nothing like that nigga

I listen to the rules and try and make a difference

How can I prove that to you when I lie afraid of commitment

With the option to do right I always end up bullshittin

Inhale smoke helps me think less Exhale thoughts in the smoke I feel helpless

Thoughtless process wish I could be brought back to the days before I started walking

If life had a refresh Id push then the regret and depressed feeling would be nonexistent like the option to do it

I need a second to breath cause envy is a disgusting monster who wont leave me alone

Jealousy is it's clone and they're making more minons they keep whispering in my ears sprinkiling their opinions

Im not apart of the circle I dont even look like it standing on the edge like is this really what life is

Im about to jump and cant nobody even stop me then I hit the pavement my demons rejoice I caught a body

My ghost leaves the scene reflecting on what just happened disappointed that I let it happen

Find what makes you happy before it's to late and when you finally get that joy dont turn your back or dare act fake

Last thing you ever want to see is your joy with another cling to whatever it is like a child to it's mother

Before the light leaves your eyes or your tears fall as you cry find your light cherish it and let it shine
