Cold World

Cold World

A Chapter by Douglas Levi Gribbins
"

I wrote this in 9 minutes, basically my thoughts at the moment.

"
I'm always under pressure, and just because the fact is
That i always got my past mistakes pulling at my jacket

Sometimes i regret pouring my heart out, piece for peace
Because sometimes i can't feel the ground under both my feet

And it hurts that the fact someone that you once loved.
Is now delivering love and passion as it's own drug.

Maybe i should've pulled the trigger, Let me and the world end it mutual.
And i would do it, Just so society can tell me that i'm beautiful

They won't do it while i'm living, No matter race or religion.
Everybody has mistakes, regrets, we all have equal sinning.

I learned in pre-school that loving everyone is the way to go.
Today it's 7 fights a week, and people treat it like "Today's show"

There's no violence that's not talked about, everyone's got a story
And if they got footage of it, it's their only cared mark of glory.

Maybe I should accept this world ain't perfect, Nor will it ever be
But at least i can try to help, Give it my all, the best of me.

..."There's no violence that's not talked about, everyone's got a story

well said! It does weight the heart and mind with what is outside our door, it is discouraging and painful but we have to stay true to ourselves and never give up on positive change and you wrote it well :)

The world is violent and always for the wrong reasons. There is even emotional violence and I liked how you tied that in.

as people we always seek a limitation of our selves from the past, or rather the past drag us beck, indeed we are under pressure

We all have our mistakes that will often be used against us, to pull us back. My mom pulls that on me a lot...but all we can really do is strive to be the best that we can be, for ourselves. We shouldn't live our lives doing what we can to impress those around us, then we lose ourselves...who we are. Just be you, be patient and go with the flow of each day. See where it takes you!

I definitely can relate to this: Feeling under pressure. This is real and coated with truth and deep emotion. Society makes beautiful people ugly. I love songs I can relate too.
