Human greed is a terrible thing, but it lies in everyone of us.
Human greed is not talking about humans' eagerness of devouring food. It's talking about the want for something else, be it a physical thing, or a demand. But still, I think demand is the worst.
Just look at ourselves. We don't kill, we don't rebel, we don't fight, we don't smoke. And still it's not enough. People want awesome behaviour...FLAWLESS behaviour. Those where every kid is like some heavenly god.
But sometimes, these people have to look at themselves. If they want us kids to be perfect 10, then naturally we'll look up to them as examples. And what do they show us? Temperamental behaviour. I'm not talking about results here, i'm not going to.
Sometimes, enjoying the simplest things in life are more than enough. We don't need to have awesome grades everytime. To me, what really matters most in life, is the behaviour towards life. Optimistic, upright person. Fair enough for me, man. Grades is a really materialistic thing and, need I say, it's a piece of paper. It's external, but what's most important is what happens internally.
Asking your conscience.
Human greed is a terrible thing, but it lies in everyone of us.
But how much of it is there in the young, and old?
I can tell you, it varies.
a lot
I'm just so ****ing depressed
I just can't seem to get out this slump
If I could just get over this hump
But I need something to pull me out of this dump
I took my bruises, took my lumps
Fell down, and I got right back up
But I need that spark to get psyched back up
And in order for me to pick the mike back up
I don't know how or why or when
I ended up in this position I'm in
I'm starting to feel dissin' again
So I decided just to pick this pen.
Up and try to make an attempt to vent
But I just can't admit, or come to grips
With the fact that I may be done with rap
I need a new outlet
And I know some ****'s so hard to swallow
But I can't just sit back and wallow
In my own sorrow but I know one fact,
I'll be one tough act to follow
One tough act to follow
I'll be one tough act to follow
Here today, gone tomorrow
But you'd have to walk, a thousand miles
In my shoes, just to see
What it's like, to be me
I'll be you, let's trade shoes
Just to see what it'd be like to
Feel your pain, you feel mine
Go inside each others' minds
Just to see, what we'd find
Look at it through each others' eyes
Don't let 'em say you ain't beautiful
They can all get off, just stay true, to you
Can't keep on loving you
from a distance...
