Capacitation
Capacitation (9/2/06)
Just stop with the bullshit, stop twisting the screws
Put yourself here and walk around in these shoes
I’m tired of the run around, just give me the truth
Give me facts to the story and back them with proof
Cause I’m sick of the fact that my life’s this way
I’m surrounded by nothing while I decay
But this is what I wanted, it’s what I made
Another rut to be stuck in like yesterday
While everybody’s talking and wasting my time
You don’t have my attention, my focus is mine
Every thing’s broken, I’m so out of line
So I blow up the world to find the solace inside
And push you back to the corner as I swallow my pride
To alleviate the tension that has hollowed my mind
Then I wait for the chance and the challenge to rise
‘Til I let myself down as I watch it fly by
And I let my mind die and I turn out the lights
Another day born that falls into the night
Just another single moment that I failed to accept
Another rhyme to flow with that I wail off my chest
A memory collected when I wasn’t the best
A dozen sleepless hours, now give me the rest
A million random thoughts that shatter the silence
And capacitate my mind into this lyrical violence
Notes: I decided to experiment more with a different flow than I usually go with. It actually does flow well, if you have the beat in your head like I do. As for the meaning, it’s a bit hard to describe, but it’s my attempt at conveying the overall barrage of thoughts that inundate me every day and how every dream and expectation is only remembered as a failure.
