Life Goals

they'll beat you
starve you
then praise you when you're dead
gone mad �
homeless
drinking till it all makes sense �
they'll take everything �
as you gave
giving everlasting dreams
all it cost was a nightmare �
lord help this poor soul
�
life goals
like Poe
�
over worked
with outrageous goals
no one hears the cries
shouting out as tries
everyday living in poverty
what he wouldn't give
for some recognition
but every attempt drives him crazy
cutting off his ear to feel something �
one shot in the chest is all it took
the sadness will last forever �
�
life goals
like Van Gogh
�
they change colors �
they change coats
but they're all the same
they'll call you a degenerate
smear your name as if it's a crime �
until you break down
and get hospitalized �
isn't life hard enough �
with these black angels surrounding �
suffering is part of the art I suppose �
�
life goals �
like Edvard
