The triggers a mans view
Come my child
Lets walk down this street.
Leave behind , your swagger
This handicap , of motion
And, affliction of need
We will just talk ?
You and me
I am your soul , that man you wanted to be
Question
What triggers your judgments
Without justification or the
Befit of doubt ?
What triggers a complement
Beyond judgment
A single kind thought .
What triggers you to say
Look at this man
That dozen’t , know his name
With his gym shoes
His cars
All the brand names
His swagger
Pride for a dollar
without shame
His confident
Assured , by the money he can make
With madness
Without justification
Without consideration
Another , band name he will chase
Intoxicated by the dimensions of only her shape
Dam she is fine
Why do men do this time after time
Like a score , or a trophy
A bragging right
To conquer another lonely life
But what about his kids or his wife
What about the love , that his name has singed
Or girlfriend ,in days of loneliness they swore to find
These are the brand names that
No longer shine
Lets walk down this street.
Leave behind , your swagger
This handicap , of motion
And, affliction of need
We will just talk ?
You and me
I am your soul , that man you wanted to be
Question
What triggers your judgments
Without justification or the
Befit of doubt ?
What triggers a complement
Beyond judgment
A single kind thought .
What triggers you to say
Look at this man
That dozen’t , know his name
With his gym shoes
His cars
All the brand names
His swagger
Pride for a dollar
without shame
His confident
Assured , by the money he can make
With madness
Without justification
Without consideration
Another , band name he will chase
Intoxicated by the dimensions of only her shape
Dam she is fine
Why do men do this time after time
Like a score , or a trophy
A bragging right
To conquer another lonely life
But what about his kids or his wife
What about the love , that his name has singed
Or girlfriend ,in days of loneliness they swore to find
These are the brand names that
No longer shine
