elsewhere

My mind finds itself elsewhere today
I find it difficult to live this way
In this time and age
where people get by on minimum wage
feeling misunderstood in all totality
Hating everyday reality
It is as if the world is committed to keeping our lips sealed
As a lady that I must yield
They want nothing to do with my perspective
for i am a woman and a addict
The justice system lacking what is in it's own name
A society that is unwelcoming to any kind of change
They seem to scream fuck the minorities
Making profit seems to be this countries only priority
As a addict I am a statistic
Friends around me dropping like flies from addiction
Living in this life can make me feel pessimistic
Because I know my mind finds it's only shelter
Elsewhere.
