Take heed, kind words to repeat
Not so kind in the heat
My kind used to defeat
Sophistry bores holes in your feet
And it's tiring me
Out here I observe the entirety
Street level with a wealth of needs
Knees settle on a rhythm rather steady like a silent string
Never ready for when quiet ends
Shine a light deep within my being
Hope I don't get stuck here in a pinch
In this realm, all I can do is whinge
Inner self screams “tired of this shit”
Outer shell, young and frail, subdued by the switch
Well deepens as my heart's within reach of my hip
I'm in need of a spliff, I'm in need of a kilo of piff
Equipped the earth, now my boulder is chipped
It's a burden to need meaning to live
At it's worst, it's a curse to exist
My search beyond heads in the dirt
With my face inside shirt
And I hurt within known universe
I've been trying to earn a life lived on my terms
But my words beside worth
My words beside worth
Take heed, kind words to repeat
Not so kind in the heat
My kind used to defeat
Sophistry bores holes in your feet
And it's tiring me
