Life's A Bitch

by Antwan Fields - Aries

life's a breeze for those who like it,those who can stand it
lifes a bitch who insults them regularly
life's a bitch, but then you DON'T die
you suffer through life asking "why?"
why this, why that, that someone attacks
you always, without fail, manage to catch flack
when your friends leave you and don't want to see you
after you die, they ask about you "who?" 
you find yourself saying you only live once 
and why waste it by acting like a prize dunce?
and you find yourself looking at the sky shaking your fist
asking "why the fuck do i live like this???"
suffer the falling of your world around your feet
just to realize that is the price of trying to be unique
you can spend your days getting high
saying lifes a bitch and then you die
or you can sit around and wish for the sky
and notice youre not getting any, let alone a bigger piece,of the pie, as you fall into the biggest of the lies
watching impassively as your friend looks at you and cries
to understand why man turns into a bore
is to close your eyes and sleep no more
AWAKE! think for a minute what the hell
has happened to you when you didn't answer the bell
and what happened when you stood up after that
muttered "life's a bitch" keeled over and fell flat
life wins by 'KO.
