Change in life is never easy, but you have to learn to deal with it because life doesn't slow down for stragglers.

The city,

Noise
Lights
Car horns blaring
Street signs
Mother cement

King of the fast food
Chain stores
A culture is lost
Clouded sky

Pollution
Litter
Filth
Rats
Drugs
Inner beauty means nothing
H*****s

Beggars
Take pity
Too many lies
So many colors
Not enough words
Follow your dreams

Don't get lost in insanity of New York City
