Temper- tribute to Hunter S Thompson

What's a temper?
A temper is like an earthquake
Just a small shift to turn buildings to rubble
To send society into panic
  The list is endless to the last statement
From an energy crisis
To a prank call planning to blow up a school
People take things too rationally...
Never thinking of a better opinion than that which is planted right in front of their gullible faces
People are always scared that they'd be too far out of line
  That's the problem with society I believe
Nobody wants to truly challenge any form of authority
I'm not speaking of protesting, but an actual revolt
But people are too comfortable on their couches watching CNN
Watching the shit unfold
 
Bottom line is, injustices are never solved without throwing your own fuel on the fire
Gandhi, Martin Luther king Jr, Malcolm X, and Edward snowmen
All prime examples of people who weren't afraid to do what had to be done
  I used to feel like a reincarnation of their je ne sais quoi  qualities they had about them
But now I find myself not high, but closer to low
My life now consists of apathy
But one quote I know has proven itself true through my travels
"Life becomes immeasurably better when you stop taking it seriously"
