MY DAY 2 DAY BATTLE

I GOTTA WAKE UP

PUT ON A SMILE LIKE MAKE UP

PRETEND ERRYTHANG'S OK

IT'S JUST MADE UP

CONVINCE MYSELF

2 GET UP ON THA PEDISTAL

WHEN ID RATHER GET RID OF MYSELF WIT A PISTOL

A RELATIONSHIP I CAN'T EVEN HAVE

GUESS THAT EXPLAINS WHY MY MOM LEFT MY DAD

ON THA CUSP OF A VIRGO AN A LIBRA

SEEMS TA MAKE MY X & Y'S

MAKE MY QUESTION WHY IM LIKE A ZEBRA

SUMDAYS ARE BLACK AN SUM ARE WHITE

AN I CAN ONLY SLEEP THRU HALF THA NITE

THA FACTS I WRITE

PROTRAY MY PERSONALITY

A BROKEN MAN

ON TOP OF THAT A BROKE SALARY

2 MANY CALORIES

AND NOT ENOUGH PROTEIN

2 KEEP MYSELF FROM GOIN HAM ON SUM FOLKS SO I GOTTA GO LEAN

AND I AIN'T TALKN BOUT KASHA CRUNCH

MOST OF THA TIME SO DEPRESSED I GO WIT NO LUNCH

FUNCTION IN THA WORLD

LIKE A NORMAL ERRYDAY CITIZEN

BUT WHEN IM BY MYSELF AN ALONE I THINK BOUT GIVIN IN

IT'S WRITTEN IN

MY SCRIPTURE

SEE THA PICTURE

BENEATH THA SKIN

IT'S MUCH DEEPA THAN LITERATURE

SIMILAR 2 THAT OF A MENTAL PATIENT

A DR. WIT A MALPRACTICE SUIT CUZ I CANT KEEP MY PATIENCE

SUMBODY TOLD ME IT WAS A VIRTUE

AN IF U REALLY LOVE ME....I AIN'T TRYNA INTENTIONALLY HURT U

JUS KNOW THAT THIS IS MY DAY 2 DAY IM GOIN THRU

AND UNDASTAND MY LIFE WHEN I REALLY WISH I COULD HOLD U

IM SO CLOSE

SUNSET ON THA COAST

APPROACH A NEW DAY

UNSEEN LIKE A GHOST

UNSEEN BY MOST

BUT IT SEEMS LIKE IM USED 2 IT

CUZ THA WORLD IM LIVIN IN'S FULLA SHIT LIKE A BOWEL MOVEMENT
