Have you ever felt so distant You just couldn't connect Lethargic and emotionally inept In Financial and moral debt So to me to welcome death Would be like I over slept Theyre called nightmares when asleep but awake it's called regrets So it's hard not to be depressed stressed wonderin if my birth today Made a difference or am I just a spec of dust under trumps toupee left with nothing deep to say No courage found to encourage me to the world im just a villager a 3rd Worlder, cuz life Honduras'd me humbled me, it's humbling, but still I fail to be artistic Being a human full of temptation Still erroneously narcissistic Convoluting what's simplistic And wanting, to want, so filled Of **** As the void shifts to over flow the emptiness til unfulfilled Am I, a contradiction, like I con with diction, as my description Paints poetic, how pathetic, like **** smelling cologne my depiction Will still smell like a pool of stool Can't justify bein my flaws, victim, When really the fault of addiction Is self inflicted a decision Welcoming, compulsory prison But I rather insult your intelligence By making *** ups sound elegant But the truth is there less Eloquent So every room I enter the elephant Is an element like it's on salary That I feed with **** talk like I lead As the Head of the peanut gallery Who feeds religiously, hourly Like bush wit twin towers I grieve it In pain by its tragedy, but in secret I Caused but sadly they believe it When I lie to myself and others and do it Much, I forget what's true And hoping you'll be less like me ... Is why I confess this to you ....

Have you ever felt so distant You just couldn't connect Lethargic and emotionally inept In Financial and moral debt So to me to welcome death Would be like I over slept Theyre called nightmares when asleep but awake it's called regrets So it's hard not to be depressed stressed wonderin if my birth today Made a difference or am I just a spec of dust under trumps toupee left with nothing deep to say No courage found to encourage me to the world im just a villager a 3rd Worlder, cuz life Honduras'd me humbled me, it's humbling, but still I fail to be artistic Being a human full of temptation Still erroneously narcissistic Convoluting what's simplistic And wanting, to want, so filled Of **** As the void shifts to over flow the emptiness til unfulfilled Am I, a contradiction, like I con with diction, as my description Paints poetic, how pathetic, like **** smelling cologne my depiction Will still smell like a pool of stool Can't justify bein my flaws, victim, When really the fault of addiction Is self inflicted a decision Welcoming, compulsory prison But I rather insult your intelligence By making *** ups sound elegant But the truth is there less Eloquent So every room I enter the elephant Is an element like it's on salary That I feed with **** talk like I lead As the Head of the peanut gallery Who feeds religiously, hourly Like bush wit twin towers I grieve it In pain by its tragedy, but in secret I Caused but sadly they believe it When I lie to myself and others and do it Much, I forget what's true And hoping you'll be less like me ...
