Wide Open


What are happy endings

Each day feels different

I know time has passed 

Is this a new world order

I was told

It was game over

Navy, Marines 

We need more soldiers

Does it really matter

If we start over

My heart got colder

Every turn 

Starts a new lane 

Every step

Keeps me ahead of the game

Look in the mirror 

What do you see

I notice no one is better than me

I been silent

For a couple of weeks

Is this real life you think

My world is painted 

Red pill

Blue pill

Stuck in the matrix

Each tattoo I get 

Will tell a story 

It’ll show how I came up

And where I’m going

I stick to the pavement 

Making my life amazing

I’m so creative

They say I’m cancer

When I’m on the biggest stages

Words came from the dungeon 

This life is an eruption

This life I love it

You can’t take me from it 

 

I put a play on words

Is this what they really deserve

I was stuck on the side of the road

Left In this world to die alone 

Is that how im going 

My love in the ocean

Push me aside and you notice 

I am wide open
