Without You I'm A Better Man
by Khari D. Hawke
Oh no, I've come to a realization
I can go elsewhere to get appreciation
which is great 'cause there's no form of compensation
to make up for your discrimination
so for lack of a better interpretation
I'm calling for an obliteration
of this relationship
that to shreds you love to rip
and broken like a fragile hip
then proceed to cruelly dip
into the depths of failure like a ship
that went to sea ill-equip
just like your bloated
twice demoted
overly exploited
eternally outvoted
triple coated
just to hide your sadly noted
failure of a life
that's brought nothing but strife
and cut my dreams just like a knife
you swore you'd be the perfect wife
but you only brought me down times five
by pulling me in and proceeding to siph'
out of me the aspiration
nearly unbreakable motivation
what was once immune to laceration
until you harvested me like a southern plantation
and stole every single artistic creation
now they might as well be in the ocean
if only I sad some sort of potion
to set the clocks reverse in motion
cleanse all that time like dry skin with lotion
and maybe I’m giving off the notion
that I just might be blowing this out of proportion
but of exaggeration I’m not a fan
overexertion of my words is not my plan
I want to show you no matter how you scan
I'm stronger now than any Spartan
and this may hit you harder than a van
but without you, I'm a better man |
