She was the youngest child brightest of the bunch

Had 2 older brothers mother died father a drunk

A loathsome man traditional thought women should know their placeGot sober through religion manipulated grace

Extremist by nature he gravitated towards the hatred

Pavlovian to dogma he often quoted his favorites

He cherry picked his scripture a mix to mesh with his worldview

A homophobe a sexist he lectured his little girl too

Different from the boys she knew she had other options

A good student undeterred she dreamt to be a doctor

No support from the community her family steady mocked her

Beatings took a toll and in her soul there grew a darkness

Quickly became a misfit her only friend was the swish kid

Which is what the bullies names him tried to shame him cause he switch hit

Life sucked they lived in bubblefuck at least they had each other

Adopted family by proxy sister brother father mother

Had no idea that Senior year it would all switch

Bullies beat swish kid near to death left him in a ditch

She got into Princeton no money she wasn′t rich

So she had to beg her daddy he told her no, called her a bitch

Swish kids body healed his heart and mind were broken

They found him 3 days later suicide through overdosing

Decided that she had to leave and left with no goodbyes or tears

No idea where she's going but gotta be better than here

The sweetest life is filled with balance for the lonely man

The joys the echos of a distant dessert swirling sand

The hour glass is always shifting through the coldest nights

The hue the flicker candle fire place the golden light

It′s all subjective what connects us to the all that is

The so called luster leaves us flustered when we fall from grace

And outta place we sometimes feel when trending music vids

Its like we're captivated at the face of falseness placed

Across the conscious mind the closet mind it has no merit

A single moth destructs the cloth of flesh you wanna wear it

It's got some holes it′s got some kinks its sorta young and tattered

When true potentials torn it often leaves you lost and shattered

A simple hole can give the common cold or influenza

The germ expands you have no chance to even influence the

Kid whose looking for some guidance yelling mister mister

Instead your tone and lack of consciousness transmits the blister

He gets it spreads it to his friends its an enormous virus

Its running rampant in his classes like a forest fire

And for this five or six year old what happens when he′s older

We'll see what happens when unconscious is taking over

We′d hope resilience turns to brilliance but the stats against him

At at this rate disease of ignorance is in his system

He thinks the worlds against him chip on shoulder broken clover

We'll see what happens when unconsciousness is taking over

He heads to that Crazy Horse to drown his sorrows in bottles

Dollars gets him coddles from exotic quote unquote models

Hopes for better tomorrows will they ever come

He doesnt hesitate to self medicate til numb, bum

Thinks of better days and wedding cake crumbs

And remembers everything up until that separation comes

Remembers everything up until the point that it finished

Thinks back to the very first time that he hit it

I aint talking hitting it as in stroking it in the bed

Talking introducing his clench fist to the side of her head

First time was hard on him

Guilt and a broke finger

Didnt stop there ′cause his dad aint raise no quitters

Poppa taught him well

But nah poppa aint preach

He led by example ample times heard mommas screech

Improved upon dads technique

Stuffing a sock in her mouth

Screams muffled in between clenched teeth

She swallowed the grief for the sake of her boys

And years with no release cleansing the blood off their toys

Growing fast, toys switched quick into chics

Growing tempers fester, it begins with playful hits

Laughter prior to disaster meant to be

Is it rotten apple that doesnt fall too far from the rotting tree

Repeat history, or path mystery when older

I guess we'll see what happens when unconsciousness is taking over
