Too many made up rules
Explain without triggering
Making others deal with the conversation
Not able to debate argue with hate
Providing personal feelings
Instead of facts personal bias
Enforce policy do what's right
Laws that changed more crimes
This world is wrong
So much contradiction
Destroying the past try to rewrite
Trying to change history
Everything canceled out
Nothing left even credibility

He had a dream about a conversation
Dreading the moment thoughts looping
A once sided argument able to ask
The person got an awkward silence
Facing the conflict head on
Always held to a different standard
While the person skirts around the question
Quick to put you on trial judge your being
Calling them on their actions
Makes the person raise their voice
Talks louder fast not letting you express
Your concerns how you see things
Quick to try and change everyone
Not making any effort to change
Over double standards
Over one sided conversations

Asking questions on the mind
Wondering how it will play out
Confront the person expecting a response
Over the double standards
Taking the blame with a grain of salt
Their side becomes a debate and justified
Asking why every excuse but a reason
The silence walks away seeing the truth
No apology just turn a blind eye
Always mad spreading it to others
Talk about everyone as an inconvenience
While you burden everyone with guilt
Being the bad guy in this story is easy
All the mind games not playing
Turned into the black sheep
Denying yourself to be accepted
Is no way to live life in the shadows
Eaten up from the inside out
Didn't do anything wrong told to change
Never said anything being talked about
Having an opinion Being prosecuted
Shamed for not agreeing or going along
Trust broken violated with disrespect
Mistreated never accepting defeat

Why don't you talk to (insert name)
Lost friends over girl
Someone made up lies that got believed
Jealous because one's on the rise
The other made no effort and stuck
All the talk behind your back
Would respect a face to face more
A friend speaks up tells the truth
Even if your voice shakes
The fear of losing a friend hurts
The loss of a friend should never happen
An apology that's not forgiven
A grudge that's held as a divider
This awkward silence not helping
A cold stare: why worry? why care?
Told the truth out of respect
It was out of love even if it went wrong
Miss your friendship not toxic behavior
Enjoyed your company learned it was all fake
Seen as family once a mistake is made
Do you treat family with hate
Not going to argue or debate
Minds made up written off
The hearts gone dark no more love
No point in trying to change it

Fear of death with cirrhosis
A clean diet can't appreciate life
Use to be a wild one growing up
Older and slowing down with age
Working for medical insurance
Going strong still able seen as a liability
Not making excuses being responsible
A worker after being around lazy people
High energy so many choose to be lazy
Keeping his mouth closed to avoid drama
Once it opens there's trouble on the rise
Working for health insurance to live
While others collect make no effort
Hated for the truth while lies get praised
Writing putting thought into perspective
Processing ideas that others share
Being creative not always in the moment

Hard to be free when others impose
Be yourself when everyone is fake
How you mad at others for working
Who spend the money that's theirs  
They earn without your say
The stuff you complain about
Doing the same why give them shade
Telling others to do things you never did
All these made up standards
You own a house not people
Some work hard to pay rent to survive
Make a living investing in the future
While piggy back talking down on others
Trying to take charge with devious ways
Dividing the family everyone was united
Stealing from grandma will comeback
Hand in her bank account blaming family
Living outside your means the deceit

Grandma cussed me out
My last memory hard to forget
Taken advantage by cousins
Regret not being around
Can't be around toxic family
Who bring people down
Take pride in instigating others struggles
Trying to bring others down
Haven't talked to her since
Use to be close now divided by silence
Growing up Not a child anymore
Always seen as a kid in her eyes
Spreading her hurt to others
Make others feel worse can't get ahead
Can't do better or get ahead
Can't settle for less rising up
