FAILURE
failure is having the audacity to dream in a dreamless world
 a place where hopes are banished 
 and passions are worth a grain of dirt 
 we live in a world where failure is the ultimate humiliation 
 it's the stocks of modern society 
 as we wait to be pelted with words 
 we stand naked in failure 
 open to the cruelty of our common man
 perfection is the only thing worth living for 
 a simple mistake can cost one there life 
 I hate our world 
 it's filled with two faced know it alls 
 holding their noses high beating the weak because of their insolence 
 I hate our world because of the wasted talent 
 where emotions mean nothing 
 cold hard cash is the only success 
 the penniless are worthless 
 yet  we worship the billionaires
 who would kill us as soon as look at us 
 we have forsaken hearts for banks 
 and love for money 
 I stand here with a dream 
 that no one else has seams worth having 
 a dream that has left me naked and alone 
 left with nothing but my hopes that are continuously being crushed 
 I'm being stomped on because I have a hope 
 a hope that I can do what I love and not what makes money 
 only the fortunate can do both 
 and the only meaning of fortune is cash 
 I long to fallow my dreams but the world we live in forbids it 
 banishes it 
 fears it 
 I'm persecuted for my hope 
 for the things I keep locked away in my skull 
 when they try to step out there immediately stoned 
 we live in a holocaust where were all the Jews struggling for life 
 but I pray that the war will be over 
 and we can think once again
