to be or not to be isn't really a question at all
to be is to exist and we do despite our wishes
you can do everything right and still fail
you can do everything wrong and prevail
life is a game of luck
not skill
it doesn't matter the force of your will
not to be what?
pessimistic
altruistic
a nihilist
an optimist
not to be what?
not to exist
I can't choose that
existence is forced upon me and I could act to take it back
but then
I'd be the empty space
I'd be my friends heartache
I'd be my own worst enemy
all because someone thought to ask
to be or not to be
