Iwanted to see how far I could push this pen
let it write the stories of our children
and the struggles that be
castle in the sky dreams
rooms messy where
floors beset with nightmares and hidden shames
and they playing dress up
putting on the pressures of their peers that’s way too big for them
but they never paid attention to the what it was they wanted to be
Like
they looked in mirrors that never been cleaned
so to say
they never got to see the opportunities in themselves
could have been anything
if their mindset was set to lead
but led is what became of them as their fragile little life proceeded
they took flights on their imagination with inhales of weed smoke
and along with the smoke their esteem floated
away
and like Dumbo seen pink elephants when drunk so did the teens that drunk
and they was to drunk to even breath
passed out waking up not knowing the surrounds they was in
and thinking it was cute to skip to my Lou from school yard blues
because you see they didn’t give a damn about the being educated
thought what am I going to need that for
and that was that voice on the left that was telling them that
told them Life was like a trip to Disney world
Picture fantasyland and its bliss
a kingdom full of magic with an island of treasure
And they pictured their land of tomorrow buzz light years away
Thinking they going to have it easy because Disney dreams so easily come true
like riding on the float in a parade
but it’s a small world that consist of sex money and fame
And so their too many Adventures lead to the good dying young
and that’s is how the story goes
