Present Reaction


Is this some form of  expensive guilt?
A tension that remains in my gut
I'm not sure what you're doing here
Since I may be just a version of a slut

Now we're here, We are forces composed of two
Quite different in nature, so gather the few
You both are and were courageous, not me
This isn't a joyride and it's as if you knew
Where to find me, come on now unwind me

I don't understand the intercourse of it all
It's a large nation, truth in it I'm small
I may have things in common with these two
What's your sexual preference or name to a few?

I want to be you two for a time
Show you a bit of how much you are prime
For the cause of sensationalism
Now they're driving me into colors like prison;
Is it an orange, is it a red,
now it's a maroon streak in my head
Down to the lights that don't shine on me
Hell, it's a shame that you have to see

Mom is full blood not mixed up like me
A cocktail can taste strange like ancestry
When your this complicated it has a cost
In this bloody mixture you can get lost

Is this a crash course on history?
I'm not teaching or driving this class
Why does it have to be humility?
Even with an A I can't pass

Now I have a disease, look I can be creepy, don't believe me!
It's a biting, hair-pulling fight I can't ever seem to flee
In hindsight I struggle frequently so I need to be brave
I'm a harmful victim and so I need to behave
Maybe not as brave as you, let's remember the few
That are of millions, billions who know not me
If I wait or leave will things turn out differently?
