"i long for a much simpler time
where way of life and piece of mind
to a younger version of me
when all i had was fantasy
when all i had was sanity
that me i had to leave behind
my city's small, my world is black
holding on? it's strength i lack
and courage too. i don't have much
heroic qualities and such
my hands, seem a poisonous touch
my tongue, constant for an attack
i walk darkened streets in despair
october winds have chilled the air
i pass the drunks outside the bars
my path, lighted by the parked cars
and yet, uncertain, like the stars
heaven, hell, i'm already there
any yet, i press on through the night
deserted streets, no one's in sight
i'm a sinner, a drowning pool
this life's a joke and i'm a fool
though i'm a dick, the assholes rule
but i survive, it's fight or flight
still i long for a simpler time
where way of life and piece of mind
because right now i walk alone
i walk alone 'cause i am alone
the only way i've ever known
my world's black but this world is mine"
again, all apologies to "real" rappers, i'm still just fucking around.
sometime in '00 or '01, was writing on loose sheets of paper and wasn't dating them. just finished today.
