I'm a problem child
Unraised, but somehow grown
Returning every night
To a broken home
Where fists were mouths
So words broke bones
But somewhere within
A metamorphosis took place
And I took off
Left without a trace
So my scars
Could finally be erased
Now I'm sleeping on benches
Got nowhere I belong
Not looking for a home
I never stay anywhere long
I'm always on the move
Running away from what's wrong
Now I'm beggin the question
Is broken better than alone?

All my friends
They go to any ends
To be on that silver screen
They wanna be large
They wanna be stars
They just wanna be seen
So they pop pills
And seek thrills
And sell their souls for some green
Their passion gets lost
In the glamour and gloss
Til they don't know what life means

They tried to bury us my dear
But they didn't realize that we were seeds
MKF Dec 2014
I'm sniffing memories like glue
Hoping that the trip
Will lead me back to you.
When you made my heart skip
When you made it beat fast
When, together, we would strip.
I always thought our love would last
I never thought we'd part
But now its in the past.
When you left you took my heart
You left me all alone
So now with this glue I'll start.
This trip is like going home
Cause now I'm back with you,
Back in the arms that were my abode.
These trips are why I love this glue
I've missed our love, my dear
And these memories are all I have to lead me back to you.

I was born with a messed up brain
One that makes me feel like I'm ******* insane
I defy all the rules
With my pen as my tool
But these people don't feel threatened
Cause they don't realize that a voice is a weapon
But I've got nothing up my sleeve
Its never been my aim to lie or deceive
I just preach my truth
To my loyal pulpit
Filled with mistreated youth
Too determined to quit
But now I'm stuck on this twisted path
Traveling down this starry road
Feeling like Kerouac
Cause now this road is my abode
The worth of my words
Is equal to diamonds
So they can't go unheard
No I won't sit in silence
Even with my mind in shackles
And my head filled with static
I'm winning my battles
With bizarre war tactics
So now happiness is my test
Cause my sadness is thicker than a kevlar vest
And I know that change is nothing to be scared about
I just don't wanna lose everything I care about
So I never forget to forgive
And I never forget to live
I'm done running now
Its time for me to take my bow
MKF Dec 2014
I think you're hard to get over
I think you could still be mine
I think you're a super nova
I think you make the world shine
I think you're made of stardust
I think you know that you are
I think that love might destroy us
I think that you're near yet so far
I think you know that you're perfect
I think you know that I'm hooked
I think if you left I'd be heart wrecked
I think you can't be overlooked
I think I'll love you forever
I think you've stolen my heart
I think I'll follow you wherever
I think we should never part
I think you know that I love you
I think you might just be scared
I think you might love me too
I think this love might be shared

You got that plastic smile
And that painted facade
Showin off your guile
You think you're ****** god
Your minions bow
To the poster child
To the spokesman now
For egos gone wild
But when you step off stage
And that mask comes off
You're just filled with rage
Cause you been slackin off
You stand for nothin
But you preach it all the same
Now people know you're bluffin
And its destroyin your fame
They're callin you fake
They're callin you out
It makes your heart break
Yeah it makes you doubt
If your friends are really friends
Or if its all a scam
If they're goin to all ends
To see that you sank instead of swam
So you're repainting your face
And com in back to your pulpit
Joinin a new race
Where you're no longer a culprit
But soon enough its all the same
A whole new group
Has figured out your game
Quick as if the last one  gave em the scoop
Now you're developin a rep
And kid it ain't a good one
Always behind half a step
Its been so long since you've won
So now you're lookin deep inside
Tryna figure out what's wrong
Tryna figure out what to hide
But you've just been lyin all along
Lyin to yourself
Lyin to your crew
But now you're dropping lies on the shelf
And becomin someone new
So when you look in that mirror
You'll like what you see
Now that person's gettin clearer
Yeah that person's breakin free
