About working hard and getting nowhere I guess...

I'm tired of trying.
Tired of the blood, sweat and tears that I'm crying
supplying the fuel to launch other people's dreams into the stratosphere
while I'm stuck staring at the starts screaming "I'm still here!"
So f**k you. And your generic dreams,
using others determination to keep your plans from falling at the seams.
And if you're reading this thinking "is this about me?"
You're right.
And if you didn't think that, you should get to pondering
what you can do to keep your workforce from wandering
out of the lifestyle that you teach them is the only one to have
and rob you for your Lambourghini keys and your Luis duffel bag,
just to justify the bullshit that you told them to endure,
so before it gets to that I'm bouncing out your door,
finding a new path where you reap what you sew,
so stand back m***********s and watch my future grow
into a beast that even you can't slay.
And in that note, I'm gone, because my future starts today.

A great flow. Almost like a rap. But I hear a lot of stuff as rap or music in general, so that's not surprising. I think you make take an interest in some of my older poems on here. They were written as raps in my mind. Ones like "I Say" or "Russian Roulette" or even "The Struggle" were written with this kind of idea. Even similar themes lol

Either way, I loved what this was talking about, and the easy sense of flow it has through the whole thing. It moves so well, its almost impossible not to hear a beat behind it. Good work, loved it, man. Keep up the writing and thanks for sharing ^^

Thanks! I listen to alot of rap and hip-hop, so when I write stuff like this, telling how I feel, off of the top of my head, it always comes out with a rap-sounding flow!
Glad you enjoyed it! :D

Yeah, I get that same thing. Especially when I'm just writing quickly and as it comes, it happens the same way. I'd love for you to take a look at some of those poems I mentioned. You might like them and it'd be cool to get your thoughts on the pieces ^^
