Let the beat drop the tone lock your
bones pop cus this time’s signature is don’t
stop. Call the beat cops the hard knocks to
keep locks on your happy feet. Meet your maker, the undertaker, the
back-breaker on your labor screaming I am your neighbor! Face
the music don’t get too [sic] it’s only too slick. Find a two-bit
cheap amusement politicking time bomb. Waiting, debating, and
suffocating are your charges. Cold callous criminals remain at large,
holding all the keys to their iron bars.
Systemic hatred burns ironically as
each fuse pops. Shoulders drop asking for lashes as hope dashes like
a dog from an abusive master. These spell castors, class actors, who
divide by a factor of zero. Non-sense non sums with greedy thumbs.
These insulators and instigators just insta-gators while you try to
tread water. Not a pot to piss in but hot enough to boil over. Roll
over Red Rover the nightmare’s not over. Bandits and loons crept
into your room and it’s safe to assume they are dangerous.
Nefarious characters tear down your barriers only to find it
hilarious.
Re-work the knee jerk attitude to
platitudes the hip checks to balance you by the books. Dirty crooks
with crooked looks and jagged hooks so you can bleed out. Don’t
scream about what’s fair just hang out drip drying in despair. It’s
not who cares, this game is for keeps, like I’ll keep you meek and
I’ll take your sleep and I’ll take your feet while you’re on
your knees begging for reprieve. Like this is not a Man you step to
or get in their face as the place they have set for you is right at
the base of their bed. Where you can curl up and bawl at blathering
drawl wafting just over head.
You weren’t built for these
compulsory capitulates, pessimistic petulants, and apoplectic hypocrites. A lyrical soul meets a tone deaf chorus. A deep sea
diver has a suit too porous. Do you know what it is to drown? Try to
scream for someone’s help but you can’t make a sound. Try to push
off the surface with no floor to be found. Not a wave, not a splash,
as you sink to the ground. And they watch, holding their breath and
puffing their chest dumbfounded by why you would end it.
