Mask Off

written 12/27/2019  

the Rona has made this piece ironic... 2020 y'all! hindsight can make anyone look like an ass in the end. 

Green Eyed Jealousy 

More potent than Hennessy

With no chaser no mixer 

On the rocks

Life gave me hard knocks 

So imma rock 

Imma have to rock 

Dreams is vivid like turpentine 

The success I could just smell it 

Let me inhale it 

Anxiety got me wobbly like gelatin

For the sativa I'm catching felonies 

Keeping me even like Stevens 

Like that honey boy I need some rehab for

the PTSD I copped from tragedy

Demons got me on the rockbottom 

They slamming me

I'm breaking down into tears in public

randomly

I don't give a fuck

I only fuck with those that mask OFF 

Of

I realize I'm not really in a rut 

Plus I got GUTS wtf 

Don't forget who you are where you came from

Even if that foundation not painless

I'm singing the dirty blues with bleeding gums 

Murphy and Lisa like back in 89 in the moonlight
