In life we'll be forced to do things
things that hurt us
that tear us apart,
that make us feel empty.
We will be placed in an environment
where we hate ourselves
where we will be put down,
harassed.
Life doesn't give us lemons
it gives us hateful words
that we sculpt inside out head
and spit out onto people like
dirt.
It's true when they say life isn't fair
it takes us for a nice ride
then while we're sleeping in the backseat,
not paying attention
it goes over a road bump without warning us
and we're jolted out of place
put out of our space
as our world comes crashing down
and you wonder why you were never warned.
Tell me how you can stand there and tease a kid
for wearing glasses
or liking superman
or not exactly 'fitting in' with a certain
group or clic.
In life we will be forced to do things
like move over in the hallway
because the cool kids take up it's entirety
or keep our mouth shut about bullies
because the teachers call it 'child's play'
In life we will all scurry around
on hands and knees
and no one will offer a hand
they would much rather tease.
I'm not exaggerating when I say
this life isn't for me.
life *****, guess I gotta **** it up.
