Blissful Ignorance
My cries for help get lost in translation,
Running out of patience- Wasting so much time on this,
If this is what knowledge brings- Then teach me no more,
Cuz ignorance is bliss.
And I'm chasing happiness while dwelling upon the depression,
Is it just a painful lesson or another step in regression?
Moving in the wrong direction- My mind's elected to quit,
Somehow I selected this shit- I should've protected my d**k.
When I screamed fuck the world.
Where do I go from here?- Face my insecurities or run from my fears?
I'm different from my peers- The years have made me smarter.
I'm harder than coldest killer- But more fragile than the man of glass,
Before they even knew me I was branded trash.
I was handed a stash of rhymes and black ink pen,
Then the bruises started to surface and you saw I was blue within.
I've brought you in- I told you I lost a...
Stop.
I won't speak of that situation- I'm replacing the guilt with greed,
A confidently cocky swagger- An alluring arrogance is seen.
It's apparently obscene and apparently I'm mean,
Cuz I extend my hand to no man who joined then left my team.
You're left with a scene from this movie- It's soothing.
To hear the hurt of another- Because you recognize the symptoms,
The pain is uplifting-For this moment you've been waiting,
Enter you're own translation- Cuz now you've gotta live with this,
Be thankful that you know no better- Just live within the ignorance...
Cuz ignorance is truly bliss.
