L*fe is a Dirty Word
L**e is a bully,
It beats you up.
Full of hypocrisy,
Full of hate,
No matter your choice,
It beats you down.
Hits you with reality,
Knocks you down.
You get back up,
It knocks you right back down.
You rise in power,
It puts you right back down.
Say something mindless,
You get reprimanded.
Work hard to get smarter,
You wasted your time.
You want to stay alive,
Others tell you to die.
You want l**e to be over,
They turn right back around and want you to live.
Don’t do well at an event,
Work harder you will get it someday.
Top your class in a competition,
You tried to hard.
Call for equality,
There is nothing your small voice can do.
Tragic event of an oppressed minority,
Why did no one help these poor souls?
Bring up your problems,
There are people who have it worse, so shut up.
Help those in need and in bad situations,
You have to take care of yourself and your own issues sometimes.
L**e,
A game,
L**e,
I’ve been playing it,
L**e,
You can’t win,
You roll the dice,
Again and again,
Over and over,
More and more,
With every roll you get far,
Far from your goal,
Far from the end,
The finish line,
Far from the start,
It’s a journey,
You can’t win this race,
Only lose.
L**e is a dirty word.
You find l**e is a muddy path,
And you run on it.
A beat up road,
And you drive on it.
It is a mountain without a trail,
And you’re climbing it,
You can’t get out of it,
You lose your way,
You keep going forward,
L**e is a dirty word.
L**e is a bully,
It beats you down,
L**e bullies you,
Bullies the world,
Causes hate towards individuals,
And towards groups.
As a child everything is good,
Playing all day,
Having fun,
Not a care in the world,
Everyone is your friend,
You dream of growing up,
You grow up everything is terrible,
You wish you were still a child,
L**e smacks you with decisions,
With school,
With work,
With bills,
Money,
Love,
Hardships,
Struggling,
Anxiety,
Stress,
Depression,
Time,
All these things are fists,
Digging deeper into your flesh,
Eventually leading to death.
You realize not everything is perfect,
People go through things,
Hate exists,
People are greedy,
Selfish,
Hateful,
Naughty,
Dirty,
No good,
Crooks.
L**e is a dirty word.
You try to find humanity,
But there is none,
The word has lost effect,
Used to be good and helpful,
Now not all is well,
Humanity is gone,
Humanity is a defect,
Humanity is hateful,
With humans there is humanity,
Humanity that destroys the planet,
Humanity that ends innocent lives,
Humanity that is evil,
Humanity that is destructive,
Humanity that I hate.
L**e is actually a dirty word.
Reality is a sin.
This world is hell.
L**e is a dirty word and I hate so many things to do with it.
