TOO-DEEP

Something i wrote my senior year in high school

IMMA WRITE SOMETHIN

-BUT I DON’T WANNA GET TOO DEEP
GOTTA DO SOMETHIN

-CUZ I CAN’T GET NO SLEEP
…WITH FINGERNAILS BITTEN

BEYOND THEIR BOUNDARIES…
REALITY SLIPS IN

AND SURROUNDS ME
INVADING MY COMFORT ZONE
IN EVERY CORNER,

NEVER LEAVING ME ALONE

…IN THE BEGINNING

I MADE A PROMISE

-THIS PROMISE I WILL KEEP
IT WAS TO WRITE SOMETHIN’

-BUT I WONT GET TOO DEEP…

BURNIN TREES

TO EASE THE BEAST

TRAPPED INSIDE OF ME
ENGAGED TO A RAGE

THAT WILL ALWAYZ BE

TIED TO ME
…ENGULFED IN SMOKE,

IM FEELIN LAZY…
SO I WONT TALK ABOUT

HOW MY MOTHER IS SLOWLY

GOING CRAZY
OR HOW THE FEMALE IM FEELIN

IS HAVIN ANOTHER DUDES BABY
DON’T WANT TO TALK ABOUT

AN UNSURE FUTURE

OR FAMILY PROBLEMS
LEFT ONLY WITH PRAYERS,

HOPING GOD WILL SOLVE THEM
…WALKING TOWARD THE EDGE OF THE CLIFF…
TAKING MY LAST PUFF
REALIZING THIS IS DEEP
BUT NOT QUITE DEEP ENOUGH…

When chaos strikes and life gets real, things do tend to get a bit deep even if we don't intend them to be.
