Pessimist Vs. Optimist

Don't know if I'm a pessimist or optimist
Maybe you could tell me what you think
For a couple cents
Got miles and miles before this amounts to shit
Got vails on vails of white just to make you twitch
Talking piles on piles of bread, I guess that makes you rich
People higher up just ain't got no fuckin sense
Speaking loud and proud now cause the beat it fuckin hits
Thinking wild and strange just to give ya mind a blitz

I guess if crime pays
You'll earn a killing too
When they find out what kind of man you are
And what you do
I hope your kids spit on you
Yeah and that's for real
They take the pros non stop
But cons they appeal
Spell it out
Cause you're just too stupid to get it
A 7 letter word to you is very impressive
Don't care for acting tough
Or flexing possessions
All that we think is ours is never a blessing
Control is illusion, so much confusion
Working for delusions, everyday
Change is hopeless, history always repeats itself anyways
So few out there like me, that's a pill that's hard to take
But It makes this very rare, So the masses can't relate

Don't know if I'm a pessimist or optimist
Maybe you could tell me what you think
For a couple cents
Got miles and miles before this amounts to shit
Got vails on vails of white just to make you twitch
Talking piles on piles of bread, I guess that makes you rich
People higher up just ain't got no fuckin sense
Speaking loud and proud now cause the beat it fuckin hits
Thinking wild and strange just to give ya mind a blitz

Really love this world and everything in it
Even the things that hurt
Never sowing division
Sitting at the staring line
I Used to notice the distance
But lately I can see why there's a growing resistance
To the way that things are
This has to change
Who's idea wins?
I'm not to say
Always felt like a misfit, out of place
Like an alien observing from a outer space
If I fully divulge scream metal case
Misunderstand all my basic traits
They always tell me, have a little faith
It's so hard to remember my Fathers face
Take another breath
Fight back the pain
Everybody's got their shit
Got no one to blame
That's what I love about this
It's the oddest thing
In this place you must just stake your claim
So I plant my flag here to say
I'm ready to face what's in my destiny
Don't know if I'm a pessimist or optimist
