There's still a lot of things I don't know.
Walking around like I've done no
Bad feelings arising from the ground low
Can't say I wasn't happy from the get-go
But I can say what I did was a sure blow
I'm smiling though, even if I know you aren't
I know I'm the sunshine in your heart that's darkened

Don't think that I'm saying this for you
Cause I'm saying it for my own sake
Nowadays I look around and I'm not too sure
What things there are for me to take

Nowadays I look around and I'm not too sure
What things there are for me to take
With conviction, passion, and lot less guilt
I thought my life was for myself to build
I thought my life was for myself to build
But you built mine when I couldn't even speak
You built mine when I was nothing but weak
You built mine when I was nothing but weak
Guess what ma, I'm feeling weaker as I speak
As I rhyme, I know you think of me as weak
We've ever barely been on the same page
Should I blame the big number that is your age?
Should I blame the restlessness that I feel
The urges and excitement I cannot explain
Or should I kneel at your feet so as to compel
Your mercy towards things in me you completely disdain?

The stars told me I could make magic today
That fatalism is a ploy for those who think they have no say
Destiny let me be your sweet child
But I don't know how I could ever follow in your strict style.

I rapped in my head while reading this haha
ReplyDeleteI like this line the most: "The stars told me I could make magic today"
Yup..and if they can't see that, I'm going to go ahead and be a teenage rebel haha
that's actually how i come up with these spontaneous rhymes! i "rap" them in my head! which is funny cause im not too big on rap, but that's just the best way for me to come up with them :))
ReplyDeleteit's not really about wanting to be rebel, but thinking about this weird unexplainable force that's creeping beneath the surface and how it seems to be seeping through. something like mr. hyde vs. dr. jeckle, but without the extreme transformation and violence haha
LOL I was also rapping in my head as I was reading this. Hahaha. :))
ReplyDelete"I thought my life was for myself to build." You have no idea how many times I've literally thought of those exact same words in my head. It's frustrating when you feel like your life isn't YOURS. It's frustrating to know how some peoples' little decisions or whims can greatly outweigh big ones you've really pondered over.
Haay, life. Everyday you feel closer, but everyday, you also feel more stuck.
PERFECT! my "writing style" is getting "through" to people
ReplyDeleteyour words are too true kyla. the irony of life is also its beauty. can't understand it now, but it'll make sense later on. i guess we all just have to be patient and determined. :)
