Break up
he took walks, eyes scared in a seemingly quiet neighbourhood
the cover of his windbreaker coat held tight, mind misunderstood
he could and should be able to excel, but life took unexpected curves
embedded in his head, an unopened book, torn up nerves
reserves all flooded, hes left with no choices yet has freedom
the sum of everyday comes to meeting eyes, unforgotten lies
his country sensationalizes, murder and both hit demise
no disguise, he sighs for family's ripped apart by the steady bullet shower
devoured children, men and women alike now who's here to empower
he watches as the freedom around him fades into a battle field
he picks at each non-existent wound as if they never healed
"what did i fight for?
who would i die for?
my president?
circumvent and end up living in a tent
this is the present and all i see is terror
this nations final steps into a polluted error
accomplishments seems to represent nothing more than hatred
i resent the fact that i had to react with aggression no sleep lying in bed
led wedged in my wife beside me, i feel nothing, non-physical
take my girl to school and see nothing more than a ripped up face and doll
fragments of my good heart are starting to fade to black woven call
consciences starting to break up i stare unwillingly at the wall"
