Ever
You ever given change to a stranger in need,
A man on the floor in the rain who begs n pleads.
Spare some change he asks from the floor,
Do you help him out or walk past n ignore?
Maybe if you had to walk a mile in his shoes,
You might know what its like to sing the blues.
You ever rode up to a food bank,
In your expensive Jeep being rude.
Taken all the quality n left the chaff,
Robbed the poor so they had naff?
Maybe if you had to walk a mile in their shoes,
You might know what its like to have to choose.
Ever been in an argument that got out of hand,
A mistaken fight totally unplanned.
Struck him in defence n sparked him out,
Dead on impact so ur jailed for nought.
Maybe if you had to walk a mile in their shoes,
You might know what its like to lose.
Choose, lose,
tied in twos.
Just be a good person,
N don't just think of you.

Don't Look Back Into The Sun
You've cast your dice,
Now your on the run,
With all the lies,
You weaved n spun.
You always looked better,
In the past n from a far,
Don't look back into the sun,
U'll keep fading like a star.
Every sec u waste is time spent,
Their onto you, so run fast,
Your life was not in their plan,
So get going before the nets cast.
I'll think of u always,
You never gave 2 fucks,
But your running out of time,
N cant keep fighting this lifes ruck.
I hope you find some peace,
Ur life wasn't ur choice or ploy,
But your born where you land,
I just hope u can find some joy.
It's a slippery slope from A 2 B,
This life wasn't meant for me or u,
Fate fucked us with one dice roll,
But I wish you well in all u do.
I wish u all the best wherever u end,
Pls find a decent lawyer to sue,
Someone above must take the rap,
Jus keep plodding thru life's glue.

How Can You Be Neutral?
How can you be you neutral and never chose to take a side,
This world is not a fast food restaurant, with a menu to decide.
You cannot be neutral, in this time of forever war,
When the guns feed the rich, and cheap bullets kill the poor.
You cannot be neutral, when Israelis kill starving Gazans,
When skeletons queue for food, and others are laughing.
You cannot be neutral, when the ill wait in lines for ill health,
Whilst politicians take your money, to enhance their own wealth.
You cannot be neutral, when people lie straight to your face,
When people are frauds, and ignore your world, or your fate.
You cannot be neutral, when thugs tool innocent folk up,
When dinlows and idiots, fill beauty with muck.
So how can I can I be neutral, when this world is fucked up too much,
I cannot just smile, when I pass, grabbing my own crutch.
So I spend my time in debate, with the cancelled, anarchists, and spies,
And maybe one day, people will really bother, to open their eyes.

The Witch
The Witch is a bitch,
She lies n she snitch.
Won't even grant a dead man,
A dead mans, dying last wish.
It seems I'm all alone,
With tons of "mates" on my phone.
But even my Facebook friends,
All give me a big fat no.
Seems there's no one I know,
Who will even give it a go.
So there's nothing 2 stop me,
From that death tunnels white glow.
The mates that I thought,
Gave me a 2 fingered naught.
Never pretend u got friends,
Even the ones that you've bought.
Coz the worst mates in the world,
Blow hot shit, then ice cold.
U thought you were friends,
But their friendship had to be sold.
All their lies to your face,
Never ever seemed out of place.
You pour ur heart out to them,
But they then walk off in haste.
So Fuck all them FaceFuck friends,
Your friendships all pure pretend.
Screw that chat log in the bin,
N admit ur friendships a dead end.
So it's all downhill from here,
I've got loads of prison 2 fear.
So when the reaper pulls the trigger,
I'll happily bleed out like a deer.
