Why is pain reminiscent rain

  And hate to jealousy

   Envy to greed

   Why do wants become needs

It's so easy to fall victim to the broken system

      Options of work or parallel to jail

     Further-ment is parallel to hell

     Souls have become easy to sell

     Flesh sells down the street like once beautiful ships with tarnished sails

      Wages are never in your favor with tipped scales

Role models seem to be flashy cars that roll by with dolled up runway models

Hollow these pictures that success paints

This is not for the faint of heart

Real life guerillas, tigers & sharks who look for every chance to tear you apart

Triggers pulled to kill self-esteem

Once beautiful people, now left phines

The big picture has now gone digital

Firm standards used to be pivotal

now change quicker that shots of liquor to an attitude of a women on her menstrual

Just making it home seems to be suspenseful

Real life thriller

Coke and Jack the ripper

Missing sons, mothers, fathers, sisters

You don't know who to fear cereal killers or just that odd looking figure

Back to the trigger

Even if it was back to the future ill shoot ya

Martin Luther believed in keeping koo

Shyt kids get stressed about a test and start carrying guns to school

No to mention their built to be as soft as babie's stool

With all this technology they make it easy to be a fool

I mean it was easy back in the day but people just had more to prove

Win, lose or draw I came to see myself conquer

Reap what you choose!
