knowning the drill                                                 3/22/07

Knowing the drill, but continue to get hit with
hot, boiling steal;
changing up the formula only to witness the same
as normal;
switching the script, not utilizing your
naturally born gift, wishing pain you'd forget;
paying the price of life for listening to fraudulent
strife;
perpetrating the illusion of love to
avoid the fact of doing it alone;
but in your tone its always "you're on your own"

Zoning out on patron, watching Al Capone,
contemplating bouncing from home;
knowing the deal, but ducking the true real,
using the flame inside to suppress the
forbidden oasis that wants release
from behind your eyes;
exploring options practicing doctor
fixing on obese hips and botoxed lips;
expecting extraction from the daily exacter,
but missing the prime factor;
close to disaster because you grew up a
fatherless bastard, but once I'm blessed
the buck stops here;
concluding the vicious cycle;
knowing the real, educated to keep it real,
but killed in the field for teaching the real!
