Is this all that has come
Is this what my life shrinks down too
A dash between two dates
One where the fucked up situation
Called life started
The other where someone's
Fucked up situation ends
I don't remember thinking
Life would be like this
Or my thought of people
Would be useless
And now I see why adults stress
Because our lives are a mess
And all we want is the best
But what does that mean
Does that mean we have to build up indestructible machines
Pick on those who didn't make the team
When did defying the laws of physics
Make you tough
Make you strong
When did money have actual
Value was that before or after you realized you couldn't eat it
But we slaughter and kill things around us
For things that have no real life value
Who Made you god ?
What made you believe you deserved the thrown
When did what the fuck came out
Of the mouth of a congressman
Mean that change was being made?
More unsung heroes do more in a month
Than congress does in a year
You sit on your post
Argue and debate
Like tearing someone down made you GREAT
I mean how can you argue
If you've never done
How did silencing someone
Mean that you won?
Like you want to be so in charge
While you ride off in your sweet cars
Make sure you pass through neighborhoods
That make you not feel safe
Because you are the big boss
Don't forget to thank those people who make change
While you invent laws
Forget their name after you've sent them off
What special gift
Besides some mumble jumble shit
Made you "it"
Did we prepare for the same battle ?
Did you come here to kill and destroy
While I came to build and rejoice
I mean if being able to scream over me make you the greats
Then why are ghetto girls the most hated?
I mean you see what I mean
You built your empire off of cash
While I build mine off of hope and dreams
While you cut down trees
Like you own this all
Remember this was given to us
Not taken by us
Once again I ask
Who made you God?
Was it the fact that lack of knowledge
Made people trust
Going to school and college
Doesn't make you enough
I barely qualify to be a human
Because this is some shit that man made up
Like damn did I prepare ?
Did you prepare ?
I mean I was born into this
So I guess this is right
Born to argue
Not save lives
So I question as always
Is this the place that we
Are supposed to call life
