[ Grasp ]

Living for achievements

Try to stake a claim

Just faking all our smiles

And stowing away our shame

I hate this ceaseless misery

I hate to wear these chains

That rattle in anxiety

Drowning me in pain

450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42NBXk8yT3

We are not living life

And everything I see

Every title and accomplishment

Means nothing to me

Working hard to get there

And yet it’s still vanity

There is only one thing I want

And that is to be free

450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsBlpYwc5o

Free from the mindsets

We’ve come to be conditioned

Because Truth is so much greater

Than our fabricated missions

Bored of all the titles

Tired of religions

Head upon a plaque

Like a trophy mount, envisioned

450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7rbaxzYRC

Displayed there in stature

Slowly collecting dust

You place your faith, it fades away

No value which to trust

Feel the hesitation

Panic in a rush

Brain inside a box that’s caught

It’s so hard to adjust

450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBOm9BgzsR

Try to shake it once again

This foolishness of deed

For anything outside of love

Has no fruit in it’s seeds

An attaboy at best

But it’s nothing to concede

Toss it to the wayside

And there’s nothing left but weeds

450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6raEdmVyf

All that you have done

What was it you obtained

Did you finally reach your dreams

Or is it someone else’s fame

Was it worth to live a lie

Shackled and enchained

To think of all that you have done

Yet you still live ashamed

450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TPa6z4cqe

Everything was focused

Roads already paved

Ordained inspirations

Societal praise

Distraction on distraction

A rat within a maze

Efforts at full throttle

Just to have a pretty grave

450Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQzNOUmyTw

The dead bury the dead

Economies collapse

Earthquake in the mindset

As you try to gain a grasp

Steady, keep your focus

Try not to relapse

For dreams can fade away

And you may never get them back
