My Life (Rap Song)

"It's my life"

And I hate it, I wish that it wasn't fated
Fantasy falls apart leaving me so frustrated
I just waited for all the pieces to come together
But now it's like I'm drowning underneath the weather

It's like I'm stuck in solitary confinement
While hope dwindles away until I barely can find it
It's scary when blinded, I wanna find a companion
But no one's thoughts match up with the mind that I'm trapped in

And strange to think that I'm single again
Talk to myself now, so I'm always bringing a pen
I'm in a tunnel but I'm not seeing the end
It gets better with time or at least we can pretend

And I'm already on shaky ground that's breaking down
If I look content I'm a lot better at faking now
Hazy sounds make it difficult to concentrate
In a constant state of awful hate to compensate

And college is a scheme, a cog in the machine
Three years I've learned nothing so that knowledge is a dream
So often it seems their only purpose is profit
Since the information taught is worthless as gossip

Hate the party scene but hardly means church is the answer
I'll keep cursing the pastor calling him worse than a cancer
Every verse is a bastard like who is the father
This heathen's not believin it's useless to bother

Twenty now, feel like I should be accomplished
Missed opportunities resting on my conscience
Am I who I should be? Do I want this?
Trapped by circular loops within an endless gauntlet

My thoughts keep spinning around, I don't fit in with the crowd
Authority figures only tell me what isn't aloud
Call it a prisoners vow, I will rise above it
And pursue peace even though I despise the public

And I control whether or not it's good or it's bad
I shouldn't be mad, and dwell on what I couldn't have had
Clutch the past so tight I lose track of the future
Forget to spare a moment so I can laugh at the bloopers

The beauty in existence lies in the actions
My life is just passing so fast like lightning, it flashes
Life's a bumpy ride so don't be surprised when it crashes
We hide a Phoenix inside until we rise from the ashes
