The Bane of Existence

Well, damn if I ain't tired of sweating dumb shyt. Unable to focus 'cause my mind is cluttered with craziness. Money-hungry people, crooked pranksters trying to stick me up for my little bit of space in the world. Scheisters trying to slick talk me out of my peace and into some scheme that lands them on a yacht 6 months out of the year. Yeah, right.

The other day I contemplating how I can get the utility companies out of my pocket. If I could afford it, I'd go solar or wind. I just imagine what my ancestors felt like waking up everyday and just BEING. Of course, their slavery was a bit different than mine. Cotton was king. Right now, it's all C.R.E.A.M. If you ain't got it on, you ain't got it home.

I recently read up on housing projects in Wikipedia. I had just watched Brooklyn's Finest and decided to do my research thing. While I was reading up on Brooklyn's Pink Houses and Chicago's Cabrini-Green, I was struck by the thought that in a minute this whole country will be the projects, the way we're heading.

How does anyone beat the odds? Ten percent of the population controls seventy percent of the wealth! They let the rest of us feel like we might eventually get to eat at the big table. Realistically, by the time you get there, you're probably only fit for the grave. You might get a year or two of good living and then they'll get it right back.

Listen, don't mind me. I'm just razzing society.
