reflections

Deep reflection, I don't see no faces Blank expressions and barren places Primrose gardens and wasted phrases Saints and Sinners, untied laces Name on a bullet, last thing to cross my mind Chasing silhouettes, to these bars, I'm confined Trials and tribulations and still undermined Truly beautiful, what the blade designed I gave you food, why you looking at my plate? The twenty eighth to me that's more then a date Muttered those six words, felt her heart break Took a break, now I awake and I trust no mistake Pay attention, to every little detail Fake on top, but the real gon' prevail Trapped in this booth, but it feels like jail I stepped on a scale, felt frail like a snail She begged that question, don't let me down I was a rebound, so I packed on the pounds I renounce, when I pronounce, the love I found On the grounds, of the town, when I was a compound Worst thing I heard is that 'I didn't change' I needed to rearrange, gears to interchange Gave up my dream of chains and fame Expanding my range, when I exchange How the f*ck, are these the golden years? Every page I turn, I'm taken by my fears Judged and snubbed by all my peers Let my actions speak when a crowd cheers Tryna find my place, playing musical chairs Circle of life, but it's filled by squares Paint my nails, explain, why do you care? Occupying your mind, how I talk, what I wear How the f*ck, is an outfit an invitation? Self entitled cunt, what's the motivation? Spoke my mind, suffered isolation Protest a protest?, lack of communication? Just shut the f*ck up, if you ain't tryna improve Pipe the f*ck down, what are you tryna prove? Food for thought, do you approve? of taking away rights and shootin' up schools?
