I Be Saying/Cut Myself Too Deep

Seriously I need to lighten up because all this pessimism isn't healthy

By savage writerPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

i been too suicidal and sentimental

what ever happened to the debut khali

the khali i was on 10/26/14

no negativity influenced my style

i was just a kid who wanted to write entertaining stories

fast forward four and a half years later

i’m now the opposite

i been too belligerent and condescending

how do i treat those who caused me distress

contributing to my traumatic syndrome

i look down on them and i make them feel inferior

is that what i do

why

because i felt like that too

is that where i seek my satisfaction

revenge

success is the best form of it

revenge

i wanna be the greatest

revenge

i been too revolutionary and open-minded

nobody likes that

they want me to conform

nobody likes how free willed i am

they don’t want that

it makes them comfortable knowing that i’m comfortable right alongside them

i seek inner peace that’s all i really want

you can have the money and the cars

along with the mistresses and side bitches

grammys and oscars

all this Hollywood drama

keep it all

i wanna be at peace with myself

keep the perks

i wanna live in peace

keep it all

i been too khali

nobody likes khali

they want savage writer

nobody likes to see khali

they want someone else instead

they want me to be something in their eyes instead of my own

nobody likes khali

so many beautiful women in this classroom

none of them like me

they’re so so so beautiful but

none of them like me

i been too resentful to self

i haven’t been kind to myself

i should be but i ain’t

i haven’t been kind to myself

i should be but i ain’t

sad poetry
