Analysis of The Unknown

Ishyne Robbins 1999 (Bridgeton)



Memories flowing from all different directions,
Scare of the future with no purpose,
Friends disappearing even during the elections,
Idk what to do I became more nervous,
With my mind bursting with thoughts.

You know fear comes with a price,
I know someday I'll get caught,
With the drugs thats shape like rice,
I look to myself not knowing about life,
Maybe one day I'll just die.

Or maybe Death will just roll the dice,
I don't know man im just so shy,
But what can I really do,
All I can do is live the now,
Really all I want is to be true.

But the real question is how,
Because my mind is hurting with this pain,
So really what can I gain?
