You cant understand

April 12, 2012
By Anonymous

Words can’t explain
Drugs can’t do a thing
You want to figure me out
Then you’ll have to step back in time
My story isn’t for you to read
It’s not a biography for the public
It’s my life and my time
You can read it all you want
When you have gone through it
But until then don’t say that fake s***
“Oh I understand” or “I can help”
You can’t do a damn thing for me
Except step back and let me live my life
That you don’t have a say or do in
So quit acting like you do
Because you can’t be like me
Let a lone understand
