Splintering
Splintering (5/1/2006)
I’ve tried a couple times but I’m still lost without a rhyme
There is nothing in my mind, I feel so hollow down inside
And it’s hard to swallow pride when there’s none there in the first place
The dark behind my eyes signifies it’s the worst case
If feel so lost as my nerves shake as I twitch to feel something
I just stare through the days cause it’s hurts to feel nothing
The last urge that is pumping every drop through my system
Is all that I hear when I stop look and listen
It’s obvious that I’m missing a certain vigor and passion
I feel apathetic to every damn thing that happens
And every thought to take action is drowned out by the silence
Where’s the anger and hate and poetic justice and violence?
Where’s the hatred inside us? Well, the anger I harbored
I can’t find the rebellion that always took me much farther
The one that my father always seemed to look down on
The flame down inside that I’d base my whole sound on
The taste I’d rebound on when somebody would hurt me
The ignition I’d pound on when it was time to get dirty
The rock that was sturdy when I thought I would crumble
And kept me from unnerving everytime that I’d stumble
And fed me lines when I’d fumble and trip over my wording
The rage that would heal me everytime I was hurting
Where has it gone now? Why the fuck did it leave me?
It left in a rush, man, I never felt it receding
But I’m melting and bleeding, I’m tearing right at the seams
And I’m surrounded by nothing even there inside my dreams
And there in my screams, there’s nothing but a small whisper
As the soul full of passion is broken down as it splinters

I don’t know what you’re on about, not being able to rhyme lately or something but you can still write. Rhyming isn’t everything anyway unless you want to rap
