1.
A quaint surprise to see a countdown. A path blazed by human action, profit and greed.
2.
force fed to live the words of my fathers lies but i gotta decide, will i recognize privileged lives that take hold from birth til death but i'm trying my best, to fully recognize and apply awareness of how my skin gives sigh brutality wears a badge and says "i had to shoot" rewarded by a foul system that says "we were justified". still, skin gives sigh
3.
bled dry by lies of a system that will pass on the profit and they say that it's fair and they say it works tell me what do we say? tell me what can we say? their fairy tale of trickle down is there compensation for mere survival?
4.
Please excuse my irrational behavior And a life full of regrets and selfishness like a bullet and a target, Caught between the past and the present I can try my best but I know my best Will never be good enough The future holds a weight I cannot bare, I will not bare
5.
Blessed with a debt. Weaken our knees, Soften our spines Punched in for another forty. Wages below any standard The bare minimum won't let us scrape by with what we already can't afford. Jumping without a net. No guilt for keeping everyone below the poverty line The price of living The cost of dying
6.
Manipulated history Penned by authors willing to forget a trail of broken lives Text book with a biased history Barely a trace of the indigenous They came with disease and rewarded a curse. Forced relocation at the cost of countless lives. Wiping out an entire people. Nothing can cover the shame.
7.
how do we define what's smart for us to fear? a toolkit to divide the monsters and the men and i bet that they'll be somebody other than me and i bet that they'll be so very different from me and the buzzwords define an image defined by color defined by race to foster hate.
8.
insecure gods make time stand still such fragile grounds we'll tear from the roots the end of this time of darkness and fear let's close the book on what's time has passed by let's tear this facade apart.
9.
10.
Wrap my arms around the wind tore my breast loose to let it go strip it away a body bereft of purpose pull off the mask and open my wrists watch me bleed for you crushed my hopes and left them in the wind my whole existence slips away like sand strip it away chalk it up to experience a crumbling mound and all that remains bled out in the sand we all pretend it matters but it doesn't
11.
pay for breaking bread buying more time all it costs to live all you do is work and spend don't do what you love do what is marketable never, ever do what you love there's no money in that but that's me full of hope and no answers that's me full of wishes and time is running out
12.
lending? no. taking strangling. left to starve wandering aimlessly can't afford to be who we are there's a margin to the side where there's just enough space to live a modicum of comfort and cold consumption that you need where do we go when there's nothing left to own when there's nothing left to sell us can we finally say we're free?
13.
you have the right but that doesn't make it right you do it because you enjoy it there's no other reason your appetite never evolved the way your mind did but it's been made up and you're so dismissive of anyone who doesn't see it your way is that what you wanted? did you get what you wanted? is it worth the cost? the blood in your mouth do your tastes alone balance the cost of it?
14.
a storm on a cloudless day the rain colder than it should be it knows my name taking certain liberties with the world around me i float off into the air and go to sleep
15.
it comes sometimes too soon others, not nearly soon enough it's the killer at our door and i want to let it in the world. the dreams all these versions of me swallow up all this make it go away
16.
lost little minds hurting, as a way of life and all those idiosyncrasies "be yourself" but all you know is pain all we want is to be free of these thoughts to break loose of this grasp we can't escape to see through new eyes for just a day without storms of my own or clouds your fixes would make i know you're trying to help i swear one day we'll bask in the sun
17.
your rhetoric is tired and uninteresting the only thing you're smashing are those keys all of this talk about burning it down you sit so still the fires never start and while each one waits for their pat on the back your lofty ideals go up in smoke every thought so calculated and concise nothing really happened at all
18.
i'll open up these veins until nothing else remains and a heart that yearns beats on empty one more breath couldn't breathe you in the darkness encircles me the way it always ends i can see you you waited the ground opens up it tastes my blood calls me home like you used to
