Some days when I wake up I look around, wanna burn the world All we've done is f*cked up Now its time to get f*cked All these empty threats And all these meaningless bets Could only ever make us End up at the edge Other times I wake up And look up at the ceiling Wondering about my purpose and is it Really true meaning? To make others happy They say you gotta be happy A puppet on a string a smile And a diamond ring Don't sugar coat it I'm allowed to feel like **** And still make others smile Even though it's been a while Since I did so myself

Purpose
Some days when I wake up I look around, wanna burn the world All we've done is f*cked up Now its time to get f*cked All these empty threats And all these meaningless bets Could only ever make us End up at the edge Other times I wake up And look up at the ceiling Wondering about my purpose and is it Really true meaning? To make others happy They say you gotta be happy A puppet on a string a smile And a diamond ring Don't sugar coat it I'm allowed to feel like **** And still make others smile Even though it's been a while Since I did so myself
I get angry. I get upset. Making others happy can make me happy. Beating up a punching bag makes me happy. Dressing up as Deadpool made me happy. This is tribute to my past self. There is so much more than others satisfaction and your own hatred
