Above The Weather

Cause I'm tired of feeling under it.

I want to be clean-
Feel refreshed and at my best.
Like I could tackle any titan contest.
For years my life has been a mess,
Sometimes beautiful,
Sometimes a build of disgusting regret.
And the words play in my cranium like music from a headset-
"Give it your all kid, don't give up yet."
I keep on moving and stuff keeps happening.
The world gives me lots of puzzles, and I just keep crackin' em.
Like Holmes away from home-
Minus the partnership of a Watson.
Just another rocker caught in a pit, moshing-
Trying to get a better glance at what I came to see,
Fighting the crowds while the masses treat me obsolete.
Yeesh!
Don't treat me like a peach,
I got the drive to turn this place into a frenzied dog off it's leash.
Like gamer fans rushing for Halo: Reach!
Or soldiers fighting a war, pulling triggers for peace!
With blood on my knuckles from all the fists thrown,
You would think by now I would have gotten a championship throne.
Pick up the phone in hopes to hear praise-
But all I get is a no-dial tone... no signal in range.
Forget the cell- like a criminal running away from jail,
I got better things to do then move like a snail.
Even though I haven't gotten credit,
Like before a Visa,
I stay in the artists spotlight, like the Mona Lisa.
Rip the rules to shreds,
Toss em' like confetti.
Cause when I play by them,
I feel cheated and unsteady.
Maybe I wasn't ready-
But I'll change my scope.
Gotta get what I can,
Gotta milk the most-
Out of life,
With this slight gleam of hope.
Cause if I mope,
Then I'll most likely be turned to toast.
And I never wanted to be a roast,
Or a fiend on coke.
So to combat this depressing poison-
I use my writing as an antidote.
Therefore I can keep trying and raise my status-quo!
I went from small time writer to lyrical-pro.
Don't you think each individual deserves a little better,
Than low self-esteem and anything lesser?
Spacesuits on- time to feel light as a feather.
Let's fly above the clouds and all this bad weather.
