Uncover the Covered


The sting of reality is realized As the reality of the real intensifies And the hidden no longer is fantasized As I uncover your habitual lies. Your past may have passed But it grabs as I am passing It caught up to you fast And sent your false life crashing. You tried your best to best me But your best wasn’t enough The chance you took was chancy For you couldn’t hide your bluff. The choice you chose is chosen You can’t choose to choose another Your choice of life does blacken As I peel away your cover. You sought cover in the cover-up But the hidden was uncovered When discovered your cover blew up In your own deceit you were smothered.
