5d
Hoping to deliver
No chance for escape
No need to prove
Himself to anyone
Ready to face
Fate
Fitted nights of sleep
Thinking of being more
Thoughts of grandeur
He couldn't ignore
Out in the real world
Such an ugly place
You gotta be young and strong
just to keep up the pace
His eyes had dark bags
Due to lack of sleep
It shows the age of his soul
On his face
Many bad decisions
These were things
he had to do
to make a name for himself in society
And social media news
He didn't have convictions
he listened to a radical few
he wanted to be noticed,
Began by burning the red white and blue
He picked a target more famous than him
,a person who would be missed by millions,
because of the way he lived
It was easy killing
and fame soon came round'
his name could be seen on every tv Posted , by every news hound
never mind the shackles
on his mortal wrists,
it was God's mercy, which he eventually
would request
He showed he was a coward
and took his own life,
which is a mortal sin
That
kept him from the light
