Lifers

There are days when waking up feels difficult as pulling teeth
There's always someone profiting off our disease
But I won't be defined by what has been defeating me
We're scared of every evil possibility
And sacrifice our freedoms for some false safety
Forgetting we Are stronger than any of us believe
Well Fuck love
It's the cancer feeding off of all of us
Chemicals concocting a dopamine rush
It is awful but it lasts just long enough
To trick the brain to think it's all okay
We either hunt or we starve
You can fight or run away
And these days get so long waiting for someone to save
You from yourself
The patterns from your past
Maybe this time The outcome won't be so bad
I can pick the lock In a pinch If you need me to break in
Lost your keys, again
Disregard facades
People change or they don't at all
We've lost it all, again
Don't trust Anything that you can reach out to and touch
That all the case oxidizes turns to rust
When they trick me into thinking I can feel
I remember that none of it can be real
We're short-sighted with self-destructive ideals
Inundated by senseless immoral codes
Have we been manipulated? Or do we just love to watch history repeat?
We're in this for life
Our sentence is being served
There is no escape route or plan B
Fuck your feast, we'd rather starve
Why do we have to make everything so hard?
Our destiny is self-destruct
We're at our best when we're totally fucked
We're in this for life. It will be our death one day
This is how you write a eulogy
We'll never fall in line
Some lessons we'll never learn
Why yell "fire" when we'd rather watch the crowded theater burn?
