                            As I look at the world through my perspective

                            knowing i aint protected as i stand by affected 

                            by the diffrent perspectives of diffrent beings

                          and diffrent meanings for some reason i am fragil 

                       to the fact people dont care anymore about the struggles

                     and the troubles as im rolling dice with the devil praying it

                      dont land on the double cause things dont feel stable as i 

                       lay my soul on the table hoping that im able to stay gold 

                       so that i dont unfold to the fact im around carless freaks 

                        knowing they dont listen to what i say when i speak

                       cause my words leave you weak as you start to think 

             this life has already had you beat as i look at each individuals souls

            i can see the things that changed you formed you and threw you away

             a feeling of good that didnt stay but im here to say i know who i am 

           and for what i stand cause i know theres a good inside man but they dont 

           plan on changing there wicked ways as my enimies try to say aint a thing 

   gonna change as i go through this life tryna stay sane i just put my headphones 

     on and listen to a song praying to god things dont go wrong cause this road is 

        long  i wanna go to my mom for advice but i think twice cause im a man

            tryna survive in this life dealing with how to stay alive as im in bed the 

             clock strucks 5:00 seeing my enimies with knifes in my dreams tryna 

            alive because i feel peoples pain as i look through there eyes i start to

             notice the enimies got em hypnotized focused on the worlds lies

        tryna survive in this cold cellar we call our lives or soul is in a shell we 

      call our bodies and all the hobbies and all the druggies and all the negativity

         thats in my category but its okay..............you dont need to worry cause  

          theres good out there ready to share where everybody plays fair and the 

           people you love actually care and the passion for love aint out of fashion

            where theres joy and kid toys and the sound of beautiful intruments make

              noise where the girls and boys start to laugh and everybodys equal no one

                signing autographs where the sky is clear and the starts reappear

               knowing good is everywhere and nobodys in pairs no clicks to impress

               where nobody cares how you dress even if youre a mess no one getting

                 arrested where you can fix your wrong doings and nobodys sewing

                 and every word i speak is moving to the ones that have wings 

                   and have beautiful voices ready to sing a place where i call

                    gods land where we all stand tall and nobody falls...........

                     rich with no money...... in the land of milk and honey but....

                       just know....... i love you rather your my enimie or if 

                       your mean to me kindness kills as the flowers bloom

                         and the beautiful night sky has room for every star

                            that zooms past like the wishing star everyone

                             has asked just know everythings gonna be okay

                                         in a land well all be in some day.
