Insomniac

Racing through life on Don

All I do is avoid L’s, playing trump cards

Like Wall r us. Life is a fat game of who can splash cash and ball out.

Few Wade in the water while many drown.

Like.

You ever seen a mum hold her dead son.

He is only three years old tears in her eyes like “Come ON!”

Shaking his limp body till the Suns gone

But there’s about 20 other kids still looking on,

No empathy. Look on the bright side, less mouths to feed?

I stood there stone cold na my heart didn’t bleed

Bland sympathy. I was, too young, to even know what it means.

As-Salamu alaykum to the little kid.

Every night I get on my knees and pray.

Lord forgive my little sins

All around the world like we’re little Sims,

Games I play I keep changing 

Phenomenal, an animal, da win I keep faith in.

Young Zeus I keep chasing,

BlackThought I keep thinking

 

Will it ever be safe you see I say goodbye, look to the sky, close my eyes and keep racing…
