I'm still learning
All of those things
I thought I had learned then
These new situations
Keep showing me that I'm just stuck in my shoes again
Without regard for when
The lines get blurred within
A maze of humans being
Present wrapped in different skin
I can only wonder what
The alternate me would become
Perhaps in a fifth dimension I could get a sense for what it is to really be
Faced with such
Untenable odds
But this color allows me some shit
Just because
It's easier
To see what I'm not
Than to see what I've got
When I've got everything
I'm easier
To define when
I can say what's lacking in
I can say what's lacking in
Lacking instead
I'm still rebuilding
All of those bridges I torched on my way in
To this iteration
Of thinking I knew what the f*ck I was sayin when
It's all so simple right?
Just some fears of life
The manifested
Paranoia sold with gun rights
I can only wonder now
Why my answers just never allow
For the prospect of
Other perspectives
That lived something different
Then what I let myself believe
Was a thing that could happen
To wander about in this madness
Sauntered about in a dreamland
Of privilege only to say that
It's easier
To see what I'm not
Than to see what I've got
When I've got everything
I'm easier to define when
I can say what's lacking in
I can say what's lacking in
Lacking instead
It's easier
To see what I'm not
Than to see what I've got
When I've got everything
I'm easier to define when
I can say what's lacking in
I can say what's lacking in
Lacking instead
