Will I be okay Persevere in spite of all that may come in my way Will I succeed in my endeavor to acquire wealth Will I regress and ultimately destroy myself Haunted by the misfortune of my complicated past Presently reflect on what has come to pass Contending with sources of pain Defacing blemishes upon my image My decisions will ensure that the hereafter won't be the same Overcome with depression and fury In the wake of instability Homelessness Insecurity Jessica's death and her children Sexism Feminism Ageism Prejudice Racism in connection to colourism My family's future The world's lack of civility My potential to be met with intended, false accusation Resulting in wrongful incarceration At the behest of one who will then profit in their desire to see me languish I oppose my subjection to the system in which it is commonplace Suppressing recurring thoughts of all I hate Til I inevitably relapse Overwhelmed Withheld by the clutches of my reality At the brink of a psychotic break To so much trauma I've held on And agony I can never capture in song I suffer culture shock Surrounded by conflict and continual expression of displeasure Contradiction stimulating stress Dwelling in a facade of optimism and perpetuating pessimism both have unique disadvantages Freedom of speech is given a negative annotation Irrational consensus causes social damage Advantageous prospects had not come to fruition Although I may have been stumbled I maintain my persistence If only I possessed divine wisdom As opposed to merely having to follow my own intuition Calculating my choices with infinite knowledge of consequence to further my progression Yet, I attempt to find my way without direction While encountering the same questions Will I be okay Persevere in spite of all that may come in my way Will I succeed in my endeavor to acquire wealth Will I regress and ultimately destroy myself Will I be okay Persevere in spite of all that may come in my way Will I succeed in my endeavor to acquire wealth Will I regress and ultimately destroy myself Will I be okay Persevere in spite of all that may come in my way Will I succeed in my endeavor to acquire wealth Will I regress and ultimately destroy myself In subjection to things That have left me aggrieved That have thoroughly altered All that I believe I now perceive human beings to be the initial cause of all that befalls humanity Warring with one another While having potential to be our own worst enemies Looking upon each other in envy Living in vanity Conceiving in poverty Birthing children into dysfunctional, incomplete families Jeopardizing their sanity Long before they come to be Mothered by women who suffer mental instability Projecting their pain on everyone in their vicinity Thereby perpetuating the very victimization they've endured Which eventually lead to repressed memories Consumed by experience, they exhibit a lack of empathy That will adversely affect their children emotionally Translating to behavioral patterns remaining after they come of age Propelled by the pain of a past impossible to change Eluded by closure Becoming known to treat the following generation the same Abusing posterity And neglecting to acknowledge their responsibility for their children's disdain In time, they develop a mechanism to cope with the trauma of which they're reminded in recollection As they pursue knowledge of self They're subconsciously overcome with the same questions Will I be okay Persevere in spite of all that may come in my way Will I succeed in my endeavor to acquire wealth Will I regress and ultimately destroy myself Will I be okay Persevere in spite of all that may come in my way Will I succeed in my endeavor to acquire wealth Will I regress and ultimately destroy myself Will I be okay Persevere in spite of all that may come in my way Will I succeed in my endeavor to acquire wealth Will I regress and ultimately destroy myself
