Sing for the moment

**verse 1**
it's hard to make a life
out of the crap that has been given
doing everything to fit in,
so tough to keep on living,
throughout every rejection,
sex and drug obsession
getting put behind bars
because of drug possession
I need a new profession
something more than just a job
used to be home alone
wondering why my mom
spent most of her attention
on my brother and my sister
nobody seemed to listen
as if my screams were whispers
emotions seemed bitter
causing this pain and anguish
The times spent with my son
are the only times painless
forgotten like I am nameless
my actions seemed like
they're brainless
this picture I'm trying to paint
is so tainted you couldnt frame this
surreal, I can't fake this
stronger so I can take this
more serious, complications
become as bad as you make it
out to be, recreating
the way I think, cause lately
it's never been more important
to stop procrastinating

**verse 2**
tragedy with no notice
happens at any moment
easy to lash out
at the ones who give condolences
not noticing, to let go
negative emotions were holding in
closing our minds up, forget
thinking outside the box
memories with loved ones
are the best ones that we got
you can try to tell somebody
to hurt less from their loss
thing is we don't recognize
how difficult it is to talk
about what all is going wrong
if a special someone is gone
never coming home
burdened by suicidal thoughts alone
toughest thing you can do
is expecting a phone call
that is never going to happen
as you drag yourself up off
that spot in the floor
forever stained by the puddle
born from mourning eyes
hard times are never subtle
you can do what my ex did
adopt a pet to cuddle
if void of physical contact
needing comfort in your bubble
emerse yourself in hobbies
til one becomes a hustle
it helps to be distracted
by positive interactions
so you think more clearly
learn to accept what happened
my ex taught me much
with the way she handled things
after losing what she deemed,
the most amazing human being
to grace her presence
defined her idea of love
trying to understand that pain
has caused me to throw up
held hostage by realities
of the for sure future
cherish each moment
even if some feel like tumors
born from toxic environments
at least it builds a sense of humor
I use like a tool lessening
damage done from rumors
hating perpetrators be spreading
like I am a loser
extract exaggerations
truth is my only ruler

**verse 3**
focus on wasted time
while wasting time when I focus
societies hocus pocus is bogus
who doesn't know this
lessons learned are a bonus
resist against psychosis
in ways we're hopeless
on a rock thats atrocious
orbiting a ball of fire
67 thousand miles an hour
darkness hungers late
every dusk it devours
the nice blue sky,
stars regurgitated shower
corpses of days passed
blanketing it like flowers
placed across a grave
symbol that life is cherished
beyond times ability
to wither away and perish
just about anything
that exists, apparent
our love gives life its color
emotion prisms to stare at
intent observations
healthy source of education
if it's concrete like stone slabs
theres only one way to take it
evils taking advantage
of facts, rearrange it
to serve its malicious purpose
constructing mental detainment
from bliss i feel estranged when
Waking up from the craze and I'm
makin my way through mazes
for days in amazement
dazed, I hit the pavement
Crazy, I can't explain it
my forehead hurts
can't see a thing and
A headache blocks the way in
summon determination
during entire durations
Of crazy games im playing
taken hold of my patience
strategize retaliation
blow up like a grenade when
threats are at their greatest
Oh im gonna make it

**credits**
I challenge you
to do what it is that you need to do
to see it through
keeping cool
I believe in you
you can prove
to yourself your doubts are fake doors
you can knock down and walk through
whenever you feel you need somebody
to talk to
hit me up, if I miss your call
I will call you
don't fret if your dreams
randomly fall through
you either stay sitting or stand moving
it's all you
is now a time for you to act
what will you do?
let's just sing for the moment
only the broken can hold it.
