IN MY MIND

Wealth has all the answers
Is a common trope
And we all fall for it
But most problems begin
Once the stomach is full
and the pocket is heavy.
The brain is the greatest machine
And no code can eventually crack
how it is programmed
And what it will feel.
It's an enabler of all things good
In this whole wide world
And if it's tilted on the other side
It can take it all downhill.
The mind can kill you
As much as a knife through the throat
Without blood and gore
yet with pain no one can understand.
You're better off dead
Is what you'll think
Day in and day out
and only love
Can sustain you to live on.
It's a snare
And liberty is dicey
A long wait
A ship on sail
In the deep blue sea
Rocking amidst tempests
Hoping against odds for sunlight to break through...

Mental health is a serious issue which does not discriminate between rich and poor, young and old just like cancer. Empathy and open minded acceptance and respect to the people suffering from this is needed as basic tenet of humanity. Be human. Extend love to near and dear ones suffering from mental health issues.

//Thinkin' in a bad way, losin' your grip
Screamin' at my face, baby don't trip
Someone took a big L, don't know how that felt
Lookin' at you sideways, party on tilt...

Some things you just can't refuse
She wanna ride me like a cruise
And I'm not tryna lose//
