Like I had to smoke a cig
If alone, sitting and eating
You're a freak.
But if alone, sitting, eating and reading.
You're old school.
If alone, sitting, eating, watching a screen.
You're obedient. You fit in.
The screen is the new cig
We the people
Are we weak?
Like I had to smoke a cig
If alone, sitting and eating
You're a freak.
But if alone, sitting, eating and reading.
You're old school.
If alone, sitting, eating, watching a screen.
You're obedient. You fit in.
The screen is the new cig
We the people
Are we weak?
To stop drinking
Gaming
Slacking
The night
Tick talking
The sun hidden behind tons of concrete
Straight up
Ticking stopped

Obey the algorithm
The new almighty
Praise goes to the same
C.R.E.A.M.
The dream remains the same
Since life thought itself up
It's sacrificed all
In pursuit of it's namesake
We'll strike down our children
Before they can dream
Before they can reach out for the sun
It's ours

Focus away
They won't know
They won't see
Why lines of IV?
Hear his bitterness
Anger and hate
His lies, his lies
By III
Drift away to ignorance
Fantasy of superiority
I asked for 1 thing
I got another
Needed
But unwanted
Habits
Needs
Fantasies
Lies
Did what you were told
Do

To force the 66 devine
Keep me in-line
This fantasy of mine
Feel the beat in mind
And the rhyme to find
Anxiety's axe grind
This is where I've signed
Imperfect rhyme
Still drips sands time
Pretense as a mime
Fraudulent crime
Still time ticks
Thoughts lick
A rhyme quick
Flow ick

Sunrise on black slate
Or corporate markets on white
In the fading light
Dragging my mind like bones
Fix the fix like I jones
Like smoke in moist hot black
Fearful hope. Attack!
Make the right choice
For long term contentment
Silence my voice
For short term debasement

Can take
It all away
Exhaustion of the body
Is it worse than the mind?
What do you find?
What are the rules?
What are your rules?
What are their rules?
Who are they?
Who are you?
So am I?
I've wasted time
In desperation to get back up on the horse
Of course
Fail

It's worth it, is nice
The good old days are here again!
Repairs, repairs, repairs.
Don't understand this broken zen?
Blood from a stone, profits vice
Under the table, you all fight
Afraid to face our papers might
Eat the tatters and crumbs
Matter numbs

Horrified by thought

I don't want to be them
But I don't know who I am
I see myself in them
Gravestone
I have to treat me
As I treat the ones I love
But can I love me?

Water erodes

What bliss
Obedience
No thinking
Just follow
Hollow out yourself
It's better for you
It's better for them
What bliss
Obedience
No thinking

Hollow out yourself
It's better for you
It's better for them
So you just might
Catch your breath
From the hot grip of death
Your brain intertwined
Algorithmic mind
Profits devined
Don't look away

Those breaths
Where illusion escapes
Patience
All good things
To those who wait
Be positive
It's our nature
To be negative
Thinking
Is the greatest addiction

Early to stand for money and
Stare at a large flat light bulb
To talk to people who are saving lives,
About their burned out incompetence
A luxury paid for
A bird crashing to the ground
Will bring its wings together
Where the tips of the

Right
Meet

Can be so mean
But until the cracks
Undamns the rage
On pins and needles
Will your feet flow
On their dress train
Of blinding white
Egg shells

Alphas protecting their nothing

Will keep hope away
And dreams of success
Nightmares confess
Inner child screaming
Internet memeing
Adults kicking
While sitting
In their parents' basement
I lie in hope
Words the rope
I
Tie
Around my throat
"Just because you're paranoid
Don't mean they're not after you. "

Sand to glass
With boredom and black
Clock implodes
Find the glass shards
Fuse into sand
Still dripping through the veins
Looking for the bottom
Of the heart
Of glass hours

How alone?
Change all around
All the years
The walls change
Boxing in conversation
See alone
In a room filled with phones
Quiet and waiting
For quiet
Coming from that corner
Played with before
Outlasted before
The walls change
Everything stays the same
