I live in my mind
I read and I rhyme
for a short time
I
get out-of-my mind
And into my life
Forget all this strife
I’m living right now
I don’t need a wife
Expectation
Temptation
Sensation
Realization
I’ve seen what I want
And I’d want what I see
But can’t get what I see
We want what we want
The sensation may not be
all I thought it would be
Realization
I live in this nation
A material creation
Fueled by Discrimination
Loss of Appreciation
Focus on compensation
Constant acceleration
Minimal Relaxation
Lack of cooperation
We all have this imagination
And we see our interpretation (of)
Quest for upward mobilization
What causes determination
and
Up and Up we go
Where we stop
Nobody knows
Friends or Foes, Highs and Lows
Shoulda
Coulda
Woulda
Are in our vocabulary
Contrary
All they do is make us wary
Make this world look scary
And become something it’s not
In the grand scheme of things
We’re just a dot
But we still care a lot
We gotta give this our best shot
Old values rot
(maybe more people should try pot)
Do some of our beliefs
Really mean squat?
We all vary
What I see is true to me
And what you see is true to you
We lost touch
With our body, our soul our mind
We all make ourselves believe
That this world is fine
We constantly seek happiness
pleasure,
Leisure,
All at the highest measure
Of course
We deserved it
We worked hard for our shit
I can relax
Maybe
Sit for a bit
Many don’t realize
That the hand that you were dealt
Could be the reasons for the feelings you felt
Probabilities in my favor
Did I get a poverty waiver
Chocolate ice cream with a vanilla wafer
Maybe that’s your favorite flavor
But no
not the best
Our preferences don’t have to pass a test
We can live our life
Obsessed
Impressed
Depressed
Possessed
Life can be a constant contest.
I live in the world of the West
Everything has to make sense
Everything must pass this test
Correlation
Causation
Causing Nausea
Can (we) confess up
That this quest up
Tends to get messed up
After we dressed up
The world that we see
To become whatever
We want it to be
Your only as free
As your mind makes it out to be
