A word is a word and a noise is a noise

But as I'm reading these words I'm hearing no noise,

Who decides what words will mean

Who decides what noises sing

Who is right if all are wrong
Who is weak if all are strong
    Who is bad if all are good

Who would change
the world's broke view,

If given all what would you do

Everything you want is all in you

Everything you need you have it too

The desire of others
will blind your view,

Remember the blessing
not the lessons

Remember that stressing
isn't heaven

Remember the child
you once were

Remember the joy and freedom
we died for.
Once we became adults our inner child died with our freedom

Indulged by the fragrant smell
                       of
           her
bleach blonde hair

            At halt with a vacant stare,
                          Beneath

              A snaring glare
        A dare to share
  A stalk to hang,

        hidden deep behind a vacant stare
                   He hides no shame

     She'll notice his eyes at gaze

           She'll think him sane..

         Right of mind
                 but
       bad at thought

   Late one night she's left to rot

     Out of sight a special spot

          Bring the knives to form a plot,

  Flower beds so no ones caught

        Bring forth joy with every strife
               Bring forth joy to take a life.

          Evil smiles when evil works

           Evil smiles when evil hurts
            
Evil smiles when evil lurks

      Evil's
lust lays in the dirt

Every step is like a brick



With a lesson behind it



And every brick that you lay



Builds fortune for better days

Fighting with demons
I'm swinging and hitting
I'm winning
I'll make it,
not kidding
They're screaming they're losing
Cause I've been abuse N defeated mistreated by people who needed
Some love and attention.
Well now they will get it
It's not the perspective they imaged.

But I ain't forgiving.
The sinners of sinning
I'm smoking and drinking
Cursing and hating
Lusting and judging
Like f--- it's nothing
I'll lie to my conscience say,
Like
trust me I got it
I got this, the problems I'm lying,
Been dying for change..

Now it's coming my way.

Trust me they'll hate

I'd cry
but I've tried

Forcing tears,

out My eyes

Yet

it never feels authentic

Always feels,

pretended

Emotions
are
expected

Then I..

project them,


But it never feels authentic
You might say I'm pathetic
Just a charlatan
who plays a part
when expected

Desperate times,

Call for

despair in rhymes
I like writing music and in one of my sad songs this line stands out the best bcoz as a writer it couldn't be quoted any better

Compassion over wealth

Not

wealth over health,

this world is going to hell

Burning is all I smell.
