The Art of Living

[ill nik-A]

Uncertainty lies in the mind of a worried pastor concerned with laughter
valiant efforts only acknowledges heroes if they’re buried after
cells determines cancer, but growth should be exclusive to personality
depression becomes a dark path in which reduces its search for clarity
disparity yet chooses to boost this hatred built amongst our people
usually when thoughts double-cross integrity guilt is faulting evil
voids are filled & often feeble while strength’s found in a ball player’s needle
can’t make a mockery of rich institutions because the law favors legal
chicken-pox tailored measles who created fever & worked its way to Aids
patience stalked your next move & learned the trade with rage
also, being concerned this day & age with others & their colors is sad to see
mothers deceiving daughters while the dad’s a cheat & brags to me
so what is family? When trust doesn’t believe in your abilities
u can water the money tree but how it blooms redeems your stability
to conceive gives some validity but where’s the tranquility in built pressure
driving yourself crazy is your will’s lecture until you find guilt’s pleasure
u don’t want your skills measured by long faces with strong cases
you opt for the easy way out & end up getting the wrong praises
every bond changes, but you can’t separate the leech & not see blood
…as well as you can also entertain the speech & not be budged
every reach has its nudge, but if you push yourself you have a chance
obstacles are possible as even the good need help to last, advance
get past, enhance & do the necessary to find some normalcy in life
every action has consequences & you think morals teach the wise?
mortals need the light & the illusion of a higher power to grace us
some don’t understand necessity while most cowards embrace lust
stealing from the hours we gave up, perspiration insults empty hands
Robin Hood’s ethics were dumbed down by all sorts of trendy scams
wishing for the best in front of a well, all depending where the penny lands
watching crackheads get their fix by assaulting the poor handy man
you never see the semi jam when there’s a friendly fire in US attire
business man profit off weaknesses & get strugglers to test desire
who best to hire when the shoeless is the buyer walking on nails
not just a business move why do you think thieves keep stalking the frail
why do the hardheads keep sulking on fails, yet living off the past
role models killed watching crooked cops benefitting from the badge
yet not admitting it’s for cash, the one thing that can cost your life & more
animalistic design for war, I guess humans don’t know what the mind is for
