    They call me quickie

    Quick written, no hooks or anything yet. Just samples of my stuff I guess. Critique plz?

    Sometimes I lie alone awake on a late night
    I wrap myself in a blanket of pain and turn off the lights
    It's abyss, its obscure, I'm unsure about truth
    At any moment in time I could end it all, that is true
    If I do, I'm through, I say as I'm seeping out booze
    Then I ask myself questions there's no answer to
    Spiritually confused
    It ain't too bad, what the hell do I know, I ain't got a clue
    I'm just a mindless fool, like the rest of you are too
    Rude to the skies I cry out for help
    My heart cries, my lungs are about to pop
    Others have dealt with worse why can't I just stop
    Are my prayers to God out of cowardly fear
    The thoughts spear through my head, lord make them disappear
    Time's passing by, it's almost surreal
    What's my purpose in life, why am I here?
    I feel that's a fact unknown and it's undeniable
    That's real, what people tell us is unreliable
    People that hurt us and people that lie
    Living a lie, committing crimes for a dime
    Is it worth it
    In the end, we all suffer, we're all born to die
    Pleasure and pain are what keep us alive


    ----------------------------------------

    War cries, we preach our hearts out to stop our people from dying
    Debating contrasting opinions of life
    Despite
    Minorities fighting for freedom
    They get shit from the people that supposedly don't need them
    You can't see them but they're pissing on you and you don't know
    Laughing at Mumia as he's sent to death row
    Racism doesn't exist, lets not lie to our people
    Obama's a poster boy, a marketing ploy, a product of evil
    Puppet figure, controlled, he does what he's told
    Screw you, screw him, screw the young and the old
    Truth is, they don't care about you, they're rolling in gold
    Society rules you kid, let the pressure unfold
    And yo, don't skew the facts on Obama, nothing's changed and you know it
    Though, let's not live in the past, I won't blame Bush, we all let them blow it
    Back to the point, guess who's gunna run a country to shambles and eat you up like a cannibal
    Make you work like an animal
    Whoever's pulling strings and showing you things on tv
    The same people who give you a gun and turn their heads as you bleed
    Evil creeping onto our souls, our future's in smoke
    Corporations manipulating our pockets, government help is a joke
    I cry out for freedom, as my palms grasp the bars
    I can't look up at the sky, there's no hope in searching for stars
    We've had enough people, do what's right
    Read between the lines, lets fight, and unite
    We owe it to our children to give them a better life
    Don't let them ignore the population, let us give a stop to government crimes

    It's time to take whats ours.
