So you have a pretty little face
But how about that brain of yours
Can it stimulate my mind too

The people that sit in the back of the room,
that don't want to be known.
The people that wear long sleeves,
that don't want she scars the be shown.
The people that sit alone at lunch,
that looks down and mess with their phone.
The people that get lost in their thoughts,
that sit there and groan.
The people that want to be skinny,
that want to nothing but skin and bones.
The people that worry about their body,
that want to be that 'perfect tone'.
The people that cry and want to die,
that no one can put them in their happy zone.

Everyone has a mind
But
Not everyone uses it

How do you know
If your thoughts
Are the product of the expression
Of your independent mentality
Or
If you’re just a parakeet
A house animal who
Repeats the words and opinions
Of those around you
That have trained you to mimic them

How do you know if you’ve reached
Enlightenment
Are you truly able to think for yourself
Or do you rely on the thoughts
Of others
More than your own
Because you don’t have any originality
Since you’ve never exercised it before

When will you start believing
That you are enough
Because it’s getting to be too tiring
To continue being you

I finally broke down every wall for You

And you picked up every single stone
Just to throw it back at me.........

It’s crazy
To think so much
About how I wished we met
In different circumstances
In a different environment
With a different context
You see
Where you meet someone
And who you’re with
Have a heavy influence
On the way in which you converse
And interact with another
Especially if you’ve never met before
For example
If you’re in a bar or dance club
You’ll interact with someone differently
Than if you met that same person
In a church or classroom
Because the environment has such a sway
In conversation etiquette and topics
If you’re hanging out with your older brothers
And their friends come over
The way in which they talk to you
Will be different because of your relation
To those around you and their presence
So even if they find you attractive
Even if they are known to be **** boys
You’ll get to see a different side of them
That you would have never seen
Had the environment and people been different
So I can’t help it but wonder
How our conversation would be
If we met in a different environment
Surrounded by different people
If you’d hit on me
If you’d be polite
If you’d be disrespectful
If you’d be quiet
As we spoke to one another
So next time
Be conscious of the environment you’re in
Of the people you’re around
Be conscious of the conversation etiquette
Of the approved conversation topics
Use it to your advantage
Or don’t
Either way
Just be conscious
