Shattered But Never Broken

Malnourished your intestines causing them to swell until the last breath of survivors can't escape
They over look us to find beauty when they've had it all along
They always look for votes as if we cant be our own leader

Why would we follow after a stranger that hides in their old flesh and covers up the new

People that hurt the young when really the old dies

In the voice we're weak but our soul crys

In the mind we're dead so that killer stay due time

Them cells fighting like its black on white crime

My leukocytes thinner than that tissue I can barely see it

On the last rope to hope my heart racing

Tryna make it to that finish line I hope I make it

They just watch you die watch you burn like bacon

I know I'm hiding from my self low confidence got me feeling like a shadow

That's my battle

Tryna pull me through the ice

I build my self up say that I can do it

Put that nike check on my chest

Righteous on the breast

I may look good but I'm at my worst my last words can barely get out of me

The sin steady follows me who am I running from

We try to battle God like a game of chest
When clearly we've never started He's already one

His job gets done and done it's almost finish

Martin had a dream

When he died the world was like here we go again

It's like we're playing a huge long game of among us

But everybody can be the imposters all at once

If we just think we can beat the impossible

You might as we'll say we all dead cause it's like these people zombies where they brain at

The devil knocking on the front door

God came to the back tryna get you out

It's your choice would you go to him

Your head booming as you scream and shout

The devil mad he pout and pouts

Cause God got you now

I can keep this going on for ever

But y'all dont wanna hear my mouth

It was Easter  night,riding on the bus coming home from Arkansas,I thought of the words malnourished and intestines I just started writing out of nowhere I felt peace hit my mind.

 

I'm young with low confidence, I'm just trying to make a difference in the new generation.
