Chandy Nov 2020
A son of the sun
Never knew how to have fun
The only thing he ever did under the sun?
Run.
Away from what?
Circumstances in which he was living
Cat and mouse game, incredibly driven
By a desire to be happy
No matter if it meant
An absence of ambrosia
Chandy Nov 2020
Reflections change perception
Make those weak, vulnerable to deception
From the moment of its inception:
Do we truly know who we are?
Chandy Nov 2020
Tick
Tock
Click of a clock
Every time the pendulum swings
We lose cherished things
Chandy Nov 2020
We live in a time
Of impossible expectations
That require immediate solutions
Maybe that's why
We're all mad, down here
Chandy Nov 2020
At the root of every conflict:
Two scared people
Who both beg
For a solution to come
Chandy Nov 2020
Wake up one day
Soon enough I’ll say:
I want to go back
Back to the days
Where everything was a marvel-
Not a “Marvel”
Want to go back
To an era of experimentation
For the whole nation
Dusting off the spiders
On the world wide web
Took the person out of personality
Broadcast yourself
Now?
Broadcast your persona
Chandy Nov 2020
Fading stars
Never go far
Black like tar
Only got enough to buy a beat-up car
[Switch up the beat]
Defeat is no feat
But to you-
Him
Her
And me
We all have our time
In fame
Success
All things that just bring us stress
End it on a good note:
Let’s just hope
That the gates are heavenly
Divine levity
I’m no church boy
So wherever I’ll go-
Enjoy the show
