Inherit Dysfunction

A man on curbside begging for some money

A lady with teased out hair, how about a night with me honey?

All so overwhelming, is it just their call?

This inherit dysfunction nailing us to the wall

Walking in this city seeing all these faces

Like blueprint we’re made from our past leaving all the traces

I think I’m different from the man that talks to himself

Or the lady in the grocery store that stole something from the shelf

It’s inherit dysfunction it happens to us all

We think if we’re among the elite to this way

We could never fall

When I turn on the TV

If I walk down the street

Our world seems to be feeding on a bigger deceit

Some will seek out therapy, or some pills to do the trick

To reach a sense of normality

Curing what others define as the mentally sick

Abandonment of nurturing in our formative years battered and tattered and so many tears

Layer upon layer wall after wall

Good times always hard to recall

Inherit dysfunction where did it start

Is it just are humanity? I believe it’s a part..

Verbal, physical and emotional abuse are some chains that bound us, there is no excuse

Love is so needed if we want to break free

Of this inherit dysfunction we all hold a key
