WHEN I SEE IT

Sometimes there's just too much to think

There's just too much to feel

Leaves you hangin' on the brink

Of too much tired, too much real

Too much to satisfy

All the things that are required

To deal with people in this life

For they avoid what they inspire

Makes you want to deny

Both the lies and the liars

If there's no trust

Then there's no right

If there's no light

Then there's no fire

People break things

Just to watch them shatter

Don't want to have to cope

Or do anything that matters

Stare at broken pieces

Of what could have been their life

When they should have stepped up

All they do is step aside

Feel myself gaining momentum

See the future close at hand

I satisfy my obligations

Fulfill every last demand

Not a moment's hesitation

I'm glad to take a stand

Have no need for second guessing

I do everything I can

Don't want to be half-assed

In a world that's full of assholes

Feel no need for their delusions

For their excuses and their hassles

Can't be convoluted

In misconstrued bullshit

No more bleeding out

Apply my pride

Just like a tourniquet

The closer I seem to get

To living life happily

The more I see

That those around me

Just live their lives randomly

Life is pointless without purpose

If I lived that way

It'd be the end of me

Can't lead my life distended

Won't let that pressure

Get the best of me

I've always gone the distance

My persistence the best part of me

I define my inclinations

Don't leave a bit to ambiguity

Some don't understand my mind

But I'm bound to continuity

I'm not one to waste my time

I want everything life has for me

Indefatigable

Undefeated

Never gullible

But I'll believe it

The proof is in the pudding

So I'll believe it

When I see it
