LIFE

How could you live
With hate in your eyes
When everywhere you turn
Your life you despise
Its like...You...
Try to keep yourself from slipping
But you cant fight the pain
Caught between the life your gripping
From drowning in the rain
You was...
Unloved as a child
And unnoticed as a teen
The only place you felt you belonged
Was in-between...Those sheets of
Someone else's problems
That you couldn't seem to muster
So then as an adult
You turned to a hustler
One who fed away the troubles
That was injected like insulin
While he whispered in your ear
That he was your only friend
Allowing you to trust him
While he took away your pride
And crushed what was left
Of the heart you had inside
Ummmm...
A life to live
Is a struggle to fight
When every night...
Your blade becomes your lover
And the man in the cover
Is just a shadow
Of the love you once felt
For You...That Is..
But you see a heart-breaker would break a heart not knowing how the heart breaks
And a risk taker would take a risk, no matter how much work it takes.
But Life...
HA-HA...
You...was dealt the shorthand
Because growing up
You had no one to understand...YOU
No one was there when you was
Raped, beat, and battered
They just last it pass
Like nothing even mattered
So you thought...
But who was there
When the father became the daddy
Of the baby that sadly
Was delivered with no love..."YOU"
Raising a child
When you was damn near a child yourself
Because you felt in your heart
That there was no one else
AND YOU WERE RIGHT!
Mommas out shaking her ass
Trying to make a living
While daddy's out hiding
Cause child support he ain't giving
Even though he's the father
Of his daughter's child...YEAH
The child he birthed,
Birthed his child
But for a while
No one knew her misery
Cause deep down, her life is just a mystery
WAITING TO BE SOLVED
So how could you live
With hate in your eyes
When everywhere you turn
Your life you despise
EASY...BECAUSE ITS LIFE
