Aware

I’m aware

That I am lost

That I am confused

That I am unhappy

Never amused

That I am small

That I am crazy

I have lost

My inspiration

I have seen too many things

That put me off these human beings

I want to love but only comes when I stop with all this seeking

I’m not special

And I don’t want to be

I wrestle with my ego

It takes so much out of me

Convincing me I’m evil

Are Mom and dad really proud of me?

I’m a dropout

A loner soul

Sometimes I’m not too fond of me

My health is out of whack

Everyday for years

My hope to ever feel better has washed away with my tears

That’s a lie

My pride doesn’t often let me cry

My challenges aren’t hard enough a voice repeats to me inside

Nothing interests me

Besides the pleasure from my plate

I sure forget I’m not the only one who ever makes mistakes

I’m sick of seeing differences finding others to blame

Instead I wish to Be the Oneness and know we’re all the same

I’m aware

I’m aware!

A part of me has died

But yet with open eyes

I see I’m finally alive

Shit, I’m in a body right now

What even is this?

A mystery to me but I know that it’s a gift

It takes me on adventures

has a drama if it’s own

Others call it Danny

I call it Danny’s Show

My family and friends are confused

Sorta worried too

How can I put this into words

I have no god damn clue

Dannys on the front porch he’s been staring at the trees for like twenty minutes

Would you take me seriously if i said I was lost in bliss?

Or would you rather believe that I’ve completely lost my mind

Well that’s plan, but just not exactly in the way you see it

The mind to you’s reality

To me it’s more like a prison

I know this because I see you bite your nails and shake your leg

And I can also tell because I was once in that world

And I still fall into it today

But the moment I admitted I’ve been a slave to it all along

That’s when I began creating my own song.
