Something to make you wonderA Poem by OSAAT91
It's been awhile since I've wrote
Something that would make me not want to smoke I love sitting outside and watching the rain It makes me wonder if this is God's way of releasing his pain From seeing his children strain From living in vain I'm listening to kendrick lamar The one who inspired me to start writing these bars About what I've done and how I feel And about keeping hope alive and clarifying what's real Right now I'm at a dead end Not saying that my life is at an end Because then that would mean an end of expressing the way I feel with a pen And I ain't ready for that It just means I have to go back And rethink my way of thinking You know rewrite my wrongs and keep my eyes on the prize without blinking Maybe change my major Instead of striking out Hit a home run for last years disgraceful innings And saving my money for later Life is so precious that it can leave us breathless She has a way of twisting fate to making you think there's no exit And that's bullshit At this point some people use a bullet As an excuse to end the fight And that's not right Leaving everybody behind because you couldn't find your way out When you could of searched a little harder Fought a little smarter and accomplished your dreams I think the government comes up with schemes so you can't find a means Like paying to live when your ill And not having enough money to pay your bills So they have you work harder to keep your homes But for the ones who hit that dead end and have to resort to that chrome So they can hold on to what they own Even though its wrong and then they eventually get sent to the state's hold Where they probably have to forsake what they've been told just to survive It's fucked up when you think of life and knowing that when yours is great the next man's is the complete opposite © 2013 OSAAT91 |
