I haven’t been myself lately
Feel like everyone around me’s snaky
Cos selfishness is a trait in everyone’s genes
Not even a debate, it’s just how it is
Cos morals are lost, almost non-existent
We all fell into the trap, of this structured existence
Feel like no-one understands or grasps the sad reality
That born alone, die alone, is a bad mentality
How can you find happiness in a world so heartless
Where the elite control, discreet
And we’re ignorant to the hidden commandments
Sex sells, celebrity lifestyle excels
Buy this, buy that, and you’ll live your life well
Those, ‘You’re nice but I’ve seen someone else,
Who’s good to the eye’ – cold mindless lines
Moving on cos we can’t find the energy
For a relationship to continue in loves prosperity
To grow a bond that makes us stronger than just one
Seems there’s always one puzzle piece
That has been lost from the box
