Mayhem by manifesto

written june of 2001((18 yrs old)

i never see the life the same it's a game and some are rollin with loaded dice

while mine are blank missin numbers haunted by stubborn poltergeist/

what's my name talkin to deaf hookers like they won't even bother to ask

drinkin a flask of ever clear hopin to forget my father passed/

on to the task of cloud watchin readin like comics in the sky

honesty fills the cracks in life and so the surface is covered in lies/

takin a drink from the puddle of youth but it's truthfully tastin' bitter

so i spit it into a frozen body and bring heat to eternal winter/

knockin on wood got me splinters mother nature won't let her

body be destoryed by poison but she's cluttered with go getters/

i hold a letter of governemnt pardon for the arson i lit underneath

slitherin snakes come out their wholes makin it harder for me/

step in peace but my next release of oxygen might be the last

passin water and brim stone unscathed but my scales reach for the past/

grab the latch open up a chapter that was locked in a gate

fate pressed immediate answers but i was robbed of a date/

with destiny so what's left for me but ashes and dust

this ain't a fact or prethought conception just caught me happen to bust/

on a tour bus from hades maybe i should just jump out

or press the breaks and watch my brains hit the glass and dump out/

philosiphize with excons that get stepped on by frank sinatras daughter

runnin out of time so i'm scratchin with the speed of blades on helicopters/

never stop the monsta life's a ying yang without balance there's no peace

we got good and bad so there's no need for police that hold heat/

with foul intentions riot gear used for the excuse of crowd prevention

thinkin' aloud I mention desperation brings astound inventions/

dribble around these clouds forgettin the ground and all that's over there

livin the life i live will be givin a chance for kids with no despair/

when hair drops and bodies shrink skin grows to heaps of wrinkled flesh to rot

soul expands balloon effect bigger it gets the closer it gets to pop/

we're not the average characters we care to categorize as

if you would just dare to think outiside the lines you'd see a divine path/

sometime the mind lacks the will and motivation takes a turn to idle

stifled by my aspirations built up anger burnin bibles/

i used to yell out curses... but as of recent life's a trampoline

ups and downs so close togther broken weather ample dreams/

trampled see that's just another thing that keeps on gettin me

so i utilize telepathy through the weed that's sittin next to me/

as the light burns i take a slight turn and rub my side burns

while ponderin another place where I'm never thinkin life burns/
