Mirror pt 1

by james22   Nov 17, 2005


As the kid looks in the mirror
he says to himself, why am i here ?
so he stands there, things start to get clearer
he realizes his place isn't to be here but out there
out there to make a change in life
but as he gets older, guess what happens, yup, his strife
as he hits middle school, his focus starts to fade
he getting older and just wants to have fun
but wait he tells himself, look what i did, look at what i made
he made himself into a crazy pre teen that just wants to run
run away from what he made himself to be
he wants to be just chill and so free
and to be free, well you cant worry much
when people try to talk to him
one word came out, that word was HUSH
life started to get a hold of him
he tried stuff, like smoking, drinking, etc
everything he looked at started to look dim
school wasn't his thing, he's grades started slippin
people would tell him what's up
but all he would say, is man ya ll trippin
after a while he started to realize what's going on
he's like shit, just like that 2 years of my left gone
now a 8th grader trying hard to just barely graduate
as he sits there they tell him, your going to graduate
but to make sure that you do, you have to go to summer school
and he's reply with a sarcastic GREAT
and so he does all that and he makes it
he's like hell yeah, I'm now out of that miserable pit
but wait there's more
