Right! So I finally typed all this stuff up, cuz I was bored. I decided to post it here for some reason. Go Fig. Hope you enjoy it!
“Addictionâ€
Stick a needle in your arm
Go ahead, it'll do no harm
Addiction
Smoke a big fat blunt, some weed
Go ahead, it's what you need
Addiction
Now it's time to snort a line
You snort yours and I'll snort mine
Addiction
Come one now, let's do some X
It's what you need to cure your hex
Addiction
Let's go drink some Alcohol!
Who cares if you stumble and fall
Addiction
Now you fall, you're on the ground
While the room spins round and round
Addiction
You vomit and start to choke
Dealer doesn't care because you're broke
Addiction
Now you're dieing on the floor
You hear your dealer close the door
Addiction
So you're dead, what can we say
You could have lived another day
If it wasn't for your
Addiction
“America The Free?â€
America the free, America the brave
America the home of the downtrodden and depraved
We polish our masks so why show our true faces
The knowledge of the world around us resembles empty spaces
Our government has problems, the system just won't work
Instead of trying to fix them we call the pres a jerk
People tell me to be proud, "You live in a land that's free!"
I look around; shake my head "You call this freedom? Not me!"
“Beautyâ€
The beauty of life
So hard to find
For the beauty of life
Lies within the mind
what's so grand about the chirp of a bird?
Nothing, yet we smile when their song is heard
What's so splendid about the sun rise?
Nothing, yet it seems profound to our eyes
There's beauty all around us
Yes, this is true
But you see the beauty of the world
Because there is beauty in you
"Different"
One head
Two eyes
Two Ears
One Nose
One Mouth
One Neck
One Torso
Two Arms
Two Hands
Ten Fingers
Two Legs
Two Feet
Ten Toes
We have so much in common
Why is it that we focus on what is different?
"Duel"
Draw your gun
It's time for fun
As the sun rises high
The guns a blur
The world a whir
As you hit the ground
The bullet is lodged
Instead of dodged
As your mind buzzes with regret
A scream is heard
And without a word
You pass from this world to the next
Hope you had fun
But now it's done
You just went out with a bang
"Failure"
I'm trying for a goal and I just can't grab it
I reach out once more, a last attempt to nab it
My hands fall short, it's no surprise
Instead I gaze, absorbing the beauty through my eyes
It seems my goals are always just out of my grasp
I cry out yelling and screaming until my voice becomes a rasp
No matter what I try all I do is stumble
All I can do is sigh as the world around me crumbles
I guess I give up too easy
When I feel my stomach getting queasy
But maybe next time I'll try
Maybe, Someday, to myself I lie
“Happyâ€
You want me to write something happy?
Give me a reason to
You want me to write something snappy?
Then change the things you do
I write what I see
It's not up to me
My writing is just a reflection
So until the world changes direction
There'll be no happy message from me.
"Lies"
"How are you feeling today?"
"Just fine!"
Ok... it feels like someone snapped my spine...
"You feel good today?"
"Oh yes!"
Ok... So my life's a total mess...
"How's your day going?"
"It's going well!"
Ok... so it's like a day straight out of hell...
"Is something wrong? You can tell me you know."
But that's the problem
… I can't …
“Merry-Go-Roundâ€
Come aboard the Merry-Go-Round!
It has ups, and downs, and turn arounds
The riders change
The scene remains
The Merry-Go-Round of Life!
“PEACE!â€
Send out the soldiers
We've got a complication
Afghani’s bombed us
So let's attack a different nation?
Why are we in Iraq?
This makes no sense!
Afghanis attacked
So IRAQIS must recompense?
War, what a useless thing
Especially in a nation where freedom rings
Just because we're the "big dog" we shouldn't abuse our power
With all this fighting it won't take long for America to turn sour.
“Questionsâ€
Why
Why do people die?
While the blue of the sky
doesn't change
When
When was innocence lost
Leaving us out in the frost
Of a world so cold
What
What will it take?
Will the world have to quake
Before we try and fix it all
Where
Where is the spark
That will save us from the dark
From Ignorance
How
How can't we see?
How easy things could be
If we all just put in a little effort
Questions
These questions have been unanswered
For way too long
“Rise Upâ€
Rise up
It's time to wake the masses
Rise Up
Put in their contacts or their glasses
Rise Up
Show them the truth, they'll be inspired!
Rise Up
Truth has read its ugly head now
Rise Up
And still the masses seem unfazed
Rise Up
All I can do is scratch my head now
Rise Up
I was sure they'd be amazed
They saw the truth, they didn't care
all they did was blankly stare
Apathy; They'd rather sleep
They'd rather be a flock of sheep
It's too much work to change it all
Civilization is going to fall
All because we wouldn't Rise Up
"School"
Bell rings, time for class
Students travel the halls "en masse"
Some will fail while other pass
Already we're slaves, childhood lost so fast
The students make a faceless blob
A mix of jocks, preps, nerds, and snobs
Stereotypes, we discriminate
Instead of unity we have hate
Isn't school hard enough?
And yet we strive to make it tough
We're against each other based on looks
So we deal with the pressure as well as the books
All it does is cause more stress
Turns normal kids into a mess
Yet we continue to cause the strife
We make it harder to live our life
Bell Rings, Time for class
we crowd the hall "en masse"
I fear the day that we pass
With us in charge the world won't last
"Slow"
I'm sitting here in class
Struggling just to pass
My teacher makes no sense
So much hard work, no recompense
Why's this work so hard?
What am I such a 'tard?
I just can't take this subject
What am I, a reject?
Everyone seems to get it
I don't ask questions and regret it
Why am I so slow?
I try and learn but it's a no go
"Slow Down"
Slow Down, don't go so fast
You'll regret it once your life is past
Things are great how they are
So don't look ahead so far
Or you might miss what's right in front of you
You want to escape the problems of life
There's no way it's worth all this strife
But it's the ups AND the downs that makes life fun
You need the glow of the moon, and the shine of the sun
It takes yin and yang to make a life
You can't be here forever, our bodies are ephemeral
So live it up while you can, memories are eternal
Live in the here and now, the present is best
Living in the future just distracts, the future is a pest
Live for the moment, just one step at a time
Slow down, don't go so fast
You'll regret it once your life is past
Things are great how they are
So don't look ahead so far
Or you might miss what's in front of you.
"Storm Clouds"
The storm clouds surround me
As the rain pours all around me
Yet as I lower my head, chest to my chin
I really can't help but to grin
Sure, things may be bad
But on the inside I'm glad
Because I know life goes on
So I'll just keep singing my song
"The Fight"
It's time to play the game
Glove on, trucks up, open the door
Just look at me, it's a shame
Two hits, too quick, already on the floor
I slam into the ground
There's blood dripping from my nose
Went down in the first round
I don't et it get to me, I hope back to my toes
Bell rings, and now it's time for round two
Game face on, guard up, the bell rings
My turn, let's go, now you'll see what I can do
Direct hit, face down, your out on the ring
The exchange continues
It seems we're never gonna stop
I can see the fire in you
I keep going until I hear my ear pop
I'm down
The world spins round
My visions blurry
I'm filled with fury
I lost
But who cares
I'm still alive.
"The Great Fall"
Greetings! Welcome, one and all
To a spectacular show, "The Great Fall"
"How does one get tickets?" I hear you say
Just take a seat and look around, we see it every day
Apathy, that's the name of the game
In this day and age giving a damn is lame
People 'round the world are dieing
While some rich bitch is crying
Cuz she didn't get the car she wanted
What's wrong with us, why can't we get it straight?
At this rate won't be long till we're knocking on the pearly gate
Knock knock knock, can we come in? Guess not
Down to hell we go another piece in the plot
Makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside, don't it?
So what can be done to fix this?
Because we just can't dismiss
All of the problems of the world
the dieing boys and girls
We have to try and make the world whole again
“Why ya frowning?â€
They feed us lies
It's no surprise
They give us shit
And we just quit
The economy's bust
But ignorance is a must
They start a war
But still we snore
But with the smallest shake
We snap right awake
We stomp our feet
We start a quake
Only to return to our bed of lies
So we can rest our tired eyes
So why ya frowning?
You've slept through the problems of the world
