this is me trying to be
myself as i was before
better than you or your whore
see, what im trying to say
is that i dont need you or your hey
although it wouldnt hurt.
i wouldn’t mind if you kept it to yourself
see, i love the snow, but not the way you know
ill love the knowledge and work
it only helps me, you jerk
ive done the group, ive done the mingle
now i need some time to work on the single
ive exceed before and i plan to again
grow past you my friend.
See, i used to think of myself as the king of kings
until i discovered that is the wrong thing
that everyone is equal and should be treated fair
however i have just rediscovered air.
you see, now that i know whats good and right
i have to know that is my own plight
and that i am infact better than you
because thats how i grow past you
you may enjoy your life,
but i plan… too
so in the end, some friends are better lost
such as you who is reading this and your boss
ill still see you once in a while
but dont expect anything as long as the Nile
because i need time for me
and thats what i want to be
call it selfishness
ill call it what i wish
clever for a 15 year old
Art is Hard | Cursive
Cut it out, your self-inflicted pain is getting too routine
the crowds are catching on to the self-afflicted song
well here we go again, the art of acting weak
fall in love to fail, to boost your CD sales
and that CD sells yeah what a hit, you got to repeat it
you gotta sink to swim
First you don’t, you don’t succeed
you gotta recreate your misery
cause we all know art is hard
young artists have gotta starve
try and fail and try again
the comforts of repetition
keep churnin out those hits
till its all the same old shit
Oh, a second verse
well color me fatigued. I’m hiding in the leaves,
in the CD jacket sleeves
tired of entertaining some double-dipped meaning
a soft-served analogy
those drunken angry slur…in 31 flavours
you gotta sink gotta sink gotta sink to swim
immerse yourself in rejection
regurgitate some sorry tale
about a boy who sells his love affairs
—
You gotta sink gotta sink gotta sink to swim
impersonate greater persons
cause we all know art is hard
when we don’t know who we are
High School graduation ceremonies are among the more ridiculous things I’ve experienced. Having been to 4 different ceremonies, I can now say, with full confidence, that they are as absolutely retarded and unnecessary as Bibles and Qurans and Torahs, decor for the ignorant. Sure, if you live in…
but not the gita!! :p haha
