Been Keeping To Myself


I've been so sad my smile radiates, trying to overcompensate for the whole globe's hate, underneath theres nothing but love, I think everyone questions whether they're good enough, been keeping to myself, going on a musical adventure helped, mainly to confuse me, the universe can curse abusively, I'm becoming bitter and jaded, thicker and underrated, the truth used to be sacred, seems the idea of the greater good's outdated, just like soul music, we've become so numb we got used to it, should've appreciated him more while alive, our parents are experienced and wise, but ultimately people too, dont let evil rule u, darkness never wins forever, working together makes the collective better, they say it takes a village, my hope and faith have been raped and pillaged, it's exhausting exuding empathy, I can't calm the pressure of leaving a long lasting epic legacy, it's all simply overwhelming, I wish my life had deep meaning and was compelling, I wanna know I'm gonna be ok, doubt seeps in and I awake afraid, is it too late, lord give me the patience to wait, time isn't the enemy, my family have been my best friends to me, where did all those hours and days go tho, reaped what I didn't sow, momentary defeat, jealous of the ultra elite, part of the have nots, my only love is dippin dots, and I'm rather quite ashamed, unique but the same, hoping that one day, we won't have to come out as gay or throw a parade!

Peace and 1,
Joe Conscious
