Burning bridges

I'm burning bridges and not looking back
why bother fearing what comes after that
rid of the poison in the air
they will never care

nothing hurts more than witnessing deceit
considering you would give them your all
even after defeat
answering their late-night calls
missing out on sleep
Clearly, I shouldn't set standards
because they'll never meet

I understand that were human, so were fallible
but they're wicked and their actions are unacceptable
generation filled with unapologetic druggies
chasing lifestyles by using anyone they can
that's just not who I am
Never could I be a sham

I'm burning bridges and not looking back
why bother fearing what comes after that
rid of the poison in the air
they will never care

I would take a bus, train, plane or a boat to you
remembering back then when I would speak to you
giving advice that you've probably heard
except mine is spoken word
evoked enough to free a caged bird

At first you started off great
then you got greedy
wanted more on your plate
should have been satisfied.
but you fell for the bait
of course, when I reached out it was too late

Every time you came over
you were never sober
wanted to discuss your relations
never a relation
going back and forth with you
questioning why you always gave into temptation
you said you're young and you're living
I should try as well, because I’ll be forgiven
what about the consequences that can arrive now or later
, you up and left and said I’m too serious and a hater
at the end of day all I did was care
but you can't help those who don't want to hear

I'm burning bridges and not looking back
why bother fearing what comes after that
rid of the poison in the air
they will never care
but I will always love them 
there's no hate over here

Hope is accompanied with pain, but I pray I never lose it.

All time High

Even if you know something
you still don't know me.
There's a lot of evil out there waiting for me
I wish they would,
and they wish that they could.
No man shall sleep peacefully
from harming another
So, don't hurt your sister,
and love your brother

Move out of harm's way
Look to a brighter day
I'm rolling in green
Loving nature's scene
Finally reached a point
Where I mean
Only what I want to mean
I'm at an all time high

Had an epiphany
Just moments after honesty
Need to put my car
in cruise control
My stress was a fallacy
Over a story that's part whole.
There's nothing you can do
with what you don't know
Just do good
because you'll reap what you sow
Religious or not let the all good
Grab the wheel
Whatever scar that still hurts
Will eventually heal

Move out of harm's way
Look to a brighter day
I'm rolling in green
Loving nature's scene
Finally reached a point
Where I mean
Only what I want to mean
I'm at an all time high

                                                                                                                                                       
                                                                                                                                                           B.W

Lessons.


My receptivity to negativity
is drowning me.
Being spiteful instead of doing what is rightful
What of my character, when I continuously choose to respond
always giving a reaction as if I’m not aware
that sooner or later by a peer that I’ll be wronged

They say this is an experience that is needed
so, there is no surprise in the future
if you're ever mistreated.
Always throwing shade
that's why you'll never see the light
Wasting your energy on nonsense
when you've got a bigger fight
know turning the other cheek
makes you appear to be weak,
but they have no idea.

No idea of my thoughts
Leave them clueless
they're nothing but empty slots
with visible bruises
and short fuses.
Not like them,
but they want you to be
I can never see eye to eye
with those who spur hate and do nothing but lie.

They say this is an experience that is needed
so, there is no surprise in the future
if you're ever mistreated.
Always throwing shade
that's why you'll never see the light
Wasting your energy on nonsense
when you've got a bigger fight
know turning the other cheek
makes you appear to be weak,
but they have no idea.
