Live positive

Live moments in positivity

Discard negative
Just did something
Gave away the key
To prosperity

If I sit and stew
And bake a monster of anger
Doesn’t help those i love

Think a circuit is undone
In my cerebellum
Scream at the tv when they don’t
Do what i say to comfort
And fatten the wallet

I cant just beat me
To pay for my sins
 So I’m starting something new

Turn a lemon to victory
in my mind I’m aware i watch me
I’m living in positivity

Not down won’t beat me up
I’m rolling dice and making bets

Up and sitting on a mountain
Doing what i was trying to win

When i win the prize
It’s like i came and felt ashamed

So i take the work of my hard earned spoils
Piss it down the drain

Maybe 30 minutes
How can you be the king
And then collect nothing or less than that

So i think that shrooms
Could stop this tormenting
Make me not insane

In my joy head it’s beautiful
Real life not so much

But i feel the thunder of my own constitution
Ride this beast and tame the spirits of not enough
Be content learn to settle and
Enjoy every moment
