My rhymes so unspeakable My dreams so unreachable Give it a purpose, cause life itself isn't meaningful Now that's the truth, I'm speaking for the youth That's aiming for the top but falling from the roof Here we, here we go again, with my paper and my pen Summer 2012 its the year of the end, or is it? Exquisite lyrics, you hear it or do you fear it Jammin' in my car, smelling like teen spirit I see a star falling form the sky, should I catch it I wanna die in my car, should I wreck it This drug makes you hooked once, should I test it Yes no maybe so, now its time for me to grow Outside of my flow, Do I ever get to know what my real passion is, why am I so imaginative Adverb, pronoun, noun, verb, adjective Mouth running, talking shit, cool it with the laxatives But its time, to recognize Armageddon's signs Start lootin' stores, kill whoever, I don't mind If you see me, don't bro me if you don't know me That goes to you, you, you and all my homeys Cause nobody knows me, and nobody told me How to write poetry, this fucking world owes me Everything I've ever wanted, f*ck you and f*ck your life F*ck you everyday, f*ck you every night Look at all the fucks I give I should start a charity Bitches thinking they in love, bitches starting to scare me Only love is family, and my lost dog charlie If you've seen a white English bull dog call me All I want out of this world is a changed world All I want is a metaphysical dream girl To smoke DMT and weed starting at the universe Trying to figure out how, nothingness is giving birth To all of reality, if space had gravity Would we fall forever or will hit the ground I wanna step outside the Universe and see whats all around Cause I don't believe in anything, not even myself Only way to wake up from the dream is through death But I keep my sanity, or whatevers left Cause I gotta keep striving, opposite of thriving Gotta stay alive and, always keep trying
