Rat King
looking for the meaning of it all
they said find faith in god
when we try to walk we fall
coming from the gutter, we're a mystery
not good, not bad,
just a product of our surroundings
fighting for the last piece of meat
getting looked down by the elite
once a vermin always a vermin
dreams of the rat becoming king
societies worst nightmare
they act like their lives are a given
it isn't for me
going above and beyond
not because I want to
because there is no other way
now stay away from the alpha
I'm the one putting in the hussle
no one is laughing when I'm getting mine
money and women as sweet as wine
the rat has become the king
societies worst nightmare

Doesn't always make me the most popular haha. But I wouldn't know how else to live.
Really when writing this I wanted to show a story that reflected how I feel when I look back in my life and how I feel very in control now.
Thank you for the read, friend. It is very much appreciated 😁
