Self Sufficient Poem by Ace Of Black Hearts

This is going to be rough.
Think you have it tough?
You are not even close enough to feel the fire.
Down to the wire.
Attempting to reclaim my spire.
Twist and turn all the way up the latter.
Please don't spit and sputter.
Out of breath and just so far to go.
I just don't know if I'll make it to the other side.
But I still have to try.
It's not as if I'm afraid die.
It's not as if I need to know.
A failure to succeed is a common breed.
Biologically screwed.
A government who needs to be sued.
A society who needs to get a clue.
What the hell is wrong with all of you.
Crying over luxury's you once had.
Your still alive be happy.
Or get angry.
Start a riot.
Burning an entire city down.
It still will not provide with antidote to the problem we all have.
Self sufficient what is that?
We depend on too many people for what we need.
And they sit back and enjoy the greed.
They see you coming.
They see you running.
Just show me the money.
Dollar signs in the eyes of fear mongers with their proclamation.
They're saying your doomed.
And you just might be.
Without a little god damn change.
Victims of the insane,
I just want to take off in a air plane.
Take off to a far away place.
Where living life isn't such a disgrace.
Where watching the children grow up doesn't leave such a bitter taste.
Turn about face.
Close my eyes and all that I once saw has been erased.
A closure to a sequence in which I just keep watching the people falling.
I've always been down here.
How long to do you plan on staying?
This is the poverty that is not seen by the elitist eyes.
Always new people we must teach.
Just how do we survive such dark times?
Let the hope spread through the hearts and minds of all with my simple rhymes.
I'm telling you everything will be fine.
Even as the tears fall from my eyes down my cheek and drip right down to the floor.
I still haven't abandoned this world.
Neither should you.
If love conquers all then I shall just never give up.
No matter how f'd up it seems.
My soul is mine to redeem.
Follow suit.
And let those who think they have it all see my dark abyss.
The serpent will spread its kiss.
