I am That Girl
I am one of those people
that are labeled as an addict.
I am judged, I am doubted,
yeah I do not doubt it.
I am the one you call a friend.
But when I'm not around,
All that you do is pretend.
I'm the one you say you can't trust.
Yet I'm the one that's first to clear the dust.
You say I'm angry, but its passion that speaks.
*** keeping calm, when I'm the feast!
Violence isn't the answer but neither is peace.
Addicted to a life that's not so bad.
Only because its all I have had.
Addicted to the times that have not changed.
Not the lifestyle, as the living, that's rearranged.
From the streets to a cage.
From the cage to the streets.
It's the grind that allows me to be free.
Watching out for you and me.
Yet I'm the only one with cuffs on my hands.
Because your my people and I protect my brand.
Call me crazy, call me careless.
But remember who I am, I'm the one that carry's your stress.
I'm the one that keeps real.
I'm the one that would give my life and wheels.
I trust nobody cause I refuse to be fooled again.
Don't blame me, blame those mother***ing sins.
I believe in things that you can't give.
I hate all that are the reasons you live.
I'm that addict in case you forgot.
Nothing more than a lost soul.
Just spinning my wheels digging a hole.
Can't find a reason so I cycle like the seasons.
Can't find a cure so I'm forced to endure.
Day in and day out.
Caught between the floods and droughts.
Never the less, I'm a ***ing mess.
But not as you are, for your the one that's scarred.
Hiding is not the same as avoiding.
Acknowledging is not the same as exploiting.
Judge me, but not before you judge yourself.
Fear me but not for what you know.
We all can't believe,
when we all fight to retrieve,
what it is that makes us bleed.
The difference is only a matter of beliefs.
The reality of what we don't knw is truly our grief.
I'm addicted to life, and living right.
I'm too quick to test,
my standards aren't realistically best.
Kinda like you and how you doubt who I am.
We are two of the same,
we are only trying to understand.
Don't try to understand, and I will do the same.
I'm an addict remember, at least I own what I try to tame.
Addiction chose me and I don't choose to abuse.
I am powerless, I can't win cuz I was born to lose.
But my message is real
and although I choose to conceal
how I sometimes feel.
It's only because you choose to undermine me
and my ability to heal.
Ignorance and stupidity are not reasons to judge.
And your unable to change for your holding a grudge.
Pain is my life. Love is my light.
Living to fight.
For the fight is my right.

No MercyYou are nothing but a dirty old man Little did I know that It was some sort of plan. It is cool though, but let me ask both of you Did hurting me fulfill your needs ? I am sure that it does not matter to either of you that you made such a young girl bleed, Did it feel good to use me like I was just a piece of dirt? Y’all can use those lines all that you want, But there is no need at all to fluirt Tell me you that care about me while you just take it all away Because I still will not believe A single damn word that you say I remember telling you no and to go away, too But apparently it just was not up to me, It was only up to the two of you ! The day before- You told me, I’m a good girl and how good that I was How there is no need to make such a fuss ...  |
The beauty and the beastThere's a villain in every story - And wicked witch of the West, A wicked witch of the East An evil stepmother, a monster, a beast. What does this villain look like? Some people might ask, It doesn't always have a witch's broom A black cape or a big and scary mask. You see, I have a villain of my own But she is kind of hard to see- She has a really good disguise She actually looks a lot like me. Mirror mirror on the wall Who is the fairest of them all, Or maybe it's monster monster inside of me Tell me tell me what do you see? Bring me apart Tell me to shreds, Make me a prisoner Inside of my own head. Tell me who I am Or tell me who I'm not, Tell me what I need Or tell me what I've got. You take away my confidence You take away my self-esteem, You caused me to fear judgment And you make me yell and scream. You taught me with your words Like this is some kind of a game, But when it comes on to it There's nobody else to blame. This monst... |
UntitledIt’s three in the morning and I ain’t been to bed. ’Cause I thought I’d stay up and get high instead. The last of my reefer all dashed up with crank. Wrapped in a Zig Zag, it’s now my new Dank. All to myself, I smoke it with pride. ’Cause the gelcap I ate has started my ride. Slowly but surely, my mouth’s been going dry. If I don’t drink something, I feel I might die. I reach for my drink, a cold Mountain Dew. I chugged it right down, now I feel I may spew. I’m acking and gacking, like I’ve done too much dope. I forgot that earlier I placed filters in it to soak. The filters alone was already enough. But I had to add a gram to make it real tough. This spiced up soda that I drank in record time. Was meant to be babied and sipped at like wine. That Mountain Dew was specifically made, to keep three people up for at least five freakin’ days. Five whole days of ... |
