Are You Okay?

Sometimes
You have to do things
Even if it means
Leaving people behind
Those who truly believe in you
Will stick around!

I thought long and hard
About taking my shot in the dark
Picking apart
My rigorous past
Convincing myself I would never go far
Developing a bellowing
Force against my inner being
Leveling a menacing
Remorse to my inner feelings
Forever been an outcast searching for meaning
Through all the work and my dreaming
I've become part of my own healing
Now that I've started its impossible to stop
I'm so connected, I'm lining the dots
I'll be fine, I've moulded my rot
Come to terms with the imperfections I got
What we all have,
But still judge one another for no reasons but class
We deceive then we laugh
I say we, cause we're all on the same path,
We've all endured pain in the past,
With a mental stain that will last
Engraved until we lay in our grave
With the dreams that we should have made
Instead most remain contained
Bribed to stay, given minimum wage

I just called to say
Are you okay?
'Cause It's been a while since we spoke last
And I just want to know if you're ok,
We somehow drifted, because I went away.

I just, wanted to get away
And not be part of a virus
There's something contagious inside us
Where we follow each other to the depths of wherever
No matter wherever, wherever maybe
A thought in the box led astray into the mainstream
Fed a mouthful of lies to resist our daydreams
Leaving an imprint restricting independent instinct
Since a young age where we're modified
To be conveyed into work life
Devalued and kept quiet, only talk when the time's right
Put a ball into a square hole and see if it fits nice
If it does wave your wing to the right
And make for the Brexit
Out of my sight I need some headspace
And meditate and soothe over this headache
Separate from the copies they made
Regenerate from the weight
Insisted by the day
I just want to be myself
Free and blessed in health

I just called to say
Are you okay?
'Cause It's been a while since we spoke last
And I just want to know if you're ok
We somehow drifted, because I went away
