Where Are You?


I sit back observant Let you know the relevant Don't like it? Tough shit. Where are you? Honestly, do you get it? Good, don't talk it Drop the games Read some books Get to know yourself Explore your avenues You know what to do Thoughts build you Words control this World around you Don't like it? Change your words Time is important If the birds Flew south The last minute They'd freeze! Buuuurrrrr! Right NOW Is the new cool Let it know You are in control Here to learn and grow They can't teach you Only you do Habits make Or break you Never let a word Describe you A bird is a bird But the one in my mind Different colored Stay focused Like any other Your bloods red So don't be bothered Beat by beat Hearts ahead That's where you're armored No matter whats said Even how awkward Never be misled You're only conquered By thoughts you embed Or those of others You let get to your head Hang with cripples You'll limp til you're dead Always noticing the ripples Only negative you'll spread Yeah, life isn't all giggles But keep your head up instead Soon you'll find it's riddles As seasons shed Change is a must Because There's balance in all said And done with what was So, refuse to be spoon fed All insecurities have their buzz Most overlook the buttered bread Keeping their box guarded with fuzz Never weigh em down with led Just cause They "believe" they know They'll never adjust Although We're all made from stardust That exploded billions of years ago Awareness to most is just unjust Maybe the truth is hard to swallow Throwing a big ol fuss Over mountain dew Or mellow yellow But life is true You know? Me and you My family And yours We're all here Wherever that is Floating around In an unknowing Beautiful Chaotic Universe.
