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

nice poem
