Kiss That Ring

what is it I really want?  
confused and frustrated
over the fake shit  
add that with lack of compassion  
your sex and drugs  
might make you all numb  
but y'all sure ain't human  
cold machines standing by  
in the ugliest of times  
they silence your voice  
for one day they can take what’s yours  
and what’s mine  
 
fight for the right!!  
like you know what that means  
it’s the little things  
oh yes, the little things  
you hand them away  
from promises made  
so eagerly, so foolishly  
entrusting in the charlatan king  
go ahead man kiss that ring  
does it give you purpose?  
don’t you feel worthless?  
raging a war made up in your head  
you said you’re a warrior  
said you’re no bitch  
but the way that you please  
right down on your knees  
sure could have fooled me  
yeah bitch!  
sure could have fucking fooled me!!  
 
Ohhh… that’s not poetry  
should be butterflies and daisies  
making you feel amazing  
but I don’t, no I don’t  
not in a maddening world  
where the clowns run the show  
and every moral means shit  
losing your spine  
so you just sit  
till the day they come for your head
