Tired of the emptiness

No one realizes their own sadness

While I sit and reflect like the bandit

Wishing I had more to give

And the future seems bleak

But the fires still brim

Can’t help but notice I can’t seem to win

Feels like a battle no one knows even  begins

Each one of us fighting a conscious within

ready to have something real to begin

But when I speak truth

I’m labeled on a whim

But I don’t need fake friends

Pretends, are a dime a dozen

Just like women who just want a bun in the oven

Feels like the world doesn’t know when the witch is in their coven

Feels like I’m taking heat for all their destruction

 

And I can’t keep trying

dying

Breaking then striving

Going through motions

When there are oceans of plenty

Those who say sit down are more than just empty

They come in your nightmares

Bring you no love but some Fendi

They speak in tongues

To make you avoid getting too heavy

Cowards at heart

Avoid their unconscious psyche

 

Tired of all the bitterness

No one realizes I always forgave their s***

Maybe I should start putting everyone under a microscope

Then say: show bliss!

think you’re more intelligent than me

Cuz you can’t miss the news for a day and resist

The urge to say you know better

When most new outlets publish the worst

Took real journalists

let them eat ramen

take crap work

Maybe I’m just sick of being hurt

It takes so much patience out of me

I imagine an invisible fist

So exhausted but no one can resist

Picking at what they perceive as weakness

When they should define their own bliss

If it’s not felt near me, go play in the dirt

I don’t have time to prove all my worth

Most have made me feel less than first

Go run right away

Nothing I’m not used to from birth

 

And I can’t keep trying

dying

Breaking then striving

Going through motions

When there are oceans of plenty

Those who say sit down are more than just empty

They come in your nightmares

Bring you no love but some Fendi

They speak in tongues

To make you avoid getting too heavy

Cowards at heart

Avoid their unconscious psyche
