As a sprout ,
I watched my elders burned to the ground
As a pup ,
I watched the other dogs eat each other
As a boy ,
I questioned wether people need each other
constantly backstabbing and beating on one other..
The spider and the frog do it better than my brothers,
sucker fish and sharks do it better than you sons of mothers..

As a seed ,
I watched my father die off inside
Watched him struggle to provide the walls in which i reside.
As a pawn ,
The powers cut me down like a lawn
For some the grass is very green iv only dirt to stand on...
Trying my very hardest , the existential dread spreads its wings inside regardless. If only it could fly, away with all my rage. A bird is cramped inside, My soul a shoddy cage.
Will you be empowered or devoured by the madness?
The victor rights his story while the loser basks in sadness,
Keep your homies closer, closer then before.
Who knows whats to come, deaths an open door.
He spent his days searching for a place where he could be,
found solace in a tree tall adjacently
What am i to do, iv long lost track of time
As im looking down, the ground i cannot find
You yourself have chosen , i wish that it was me..
But holding something down simply means it isnt free..
Unsure of what to do, residing in your branches
Ions from the ground , miles away from answers.
Comforting for me,
Blood curdling for others.
I do not wish to die,
Dont wish this on your brothers.
Slowly i discovered,
As truth would rear its head.
The living aren't all living,
The perished aren't all dead.

Wealthiest are fed while standing tall amongst their idols,
Sacrifice the weak to hold a place amongst their rivals.
I hope we see the patterns,
Before they rob us blind.
They leave a trail of crumbs,
so you may creep behind..
Everyone is looking to be whole..
Are we not beautifully broken ?
Open your eyes, Open your eyes..
Obvious lies..
Deceit
Repeat it again..
Grief will echo in the lands from inside of the pen,
No one has a limb to lend but they might try pretend
watch your friends, watch your friends..
Like they were your enemies..
many of us go through life concealed by false identity
Give Mlk a holiday when really he's their enemy.
Give a nation death then give it life then give it living fees..

Teaching you that villains came and actually saved the day..
Showing you a different face to beg for dreams and pray ..
Teaching you that money is a substance that is needed
Teaching you that marionettes are to be headed..

Its become obvious that the one percent is dominant
The wounds that bless our backs remind us of your evils prominence..
My sight fills me with fright as it is easily deceived
What is life when my brothers make me  wanna leave.
What is strength when these crutches hold me up so high.
What is truth when you can't detach it from the lies.
What is positivity with poison in the skys.
What is optimism when they do not head your cries..
If there is a god i hope he made you for me
Beauty stretched across your temples land and sea..
