Sane and Insanity

Folder: 
SPOKEN WORD

I’m on the edge of insanity, thinking about jumping,

Can I defy gravity?



See I’ve walked through the valley of the shadow of death,

Took a look at my life and realized there’s nothing left.



It’s a battle between sane and insane,

Tormented thoughts fukked up my membrane.



They say it’s a chemical imbalance that’s made me a bi polar

hypomaniac.

But screw the doctors and the drugs, don’t give me prozac.



Why would you give me drugs that can potentially make me worst?

You’ll have me doing shyt that’ll land one of us in a herst.



And we don’t want that, I suggest you stand back.



I’m on the edge of insanity,

thinking about jumping, can I defy gravity?



It didn’t have to end this way, things could’ve been better,

You didn’t have to find me next to a suicide letter.



In the battle of sane and insane, insanity won.

You pushed me over the edge, see what you’ve done.



You created the monster in me that took over with full force,

Now my family and friends are mourning my loss.



I was on the edge of insanity and finally jumped to my death.

Took the entire bottle of pills, now the battle is over and I finally rest.
