Blaming others not yourself

by Lynette Lynn   Nov 10, 2017


You know I guess I'm not the same
I used to care who spoke my name
I used to do people wrong like everything was just a game

But it's a shame, the good souls go unknown, every pebble is a stone, a sad kid with no home..

Couples left and right,
eyes with no eyesight, animals in the streets, strangers tryna live but fight..
and yet again you're just alone, have a place but no home, have a heart no love, can't smile you just shrug, have arms but never hug, so you give your life up for a drug..

Anxiety, excuses
Giving up now your useless..
Blaming others but not yourself
Deteriorating your own health..

Crying out for support, makin life for you so short
No one's listening, you feel deaf
Choosing drugs, over your breath
Laying buried beneath ur blanket, you're not happy so u fake it..

You're right you're still the same, feeling nothing but this pain..

No job, no career, no ears to even hear.
The only thing you have is yourself and the drug you fear..
