From The Sky

By TheOtherYou

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

They push you around and they shove you down And then they make you feel like you're nothing They hold you back from everything you love And then they strip you of your dignity and spit on your name They melt you down and turn you inside out And then they make you hate them forever They force you to be exactly like them And then they realize that they're not in control anymore It makes you as sick as it makes me I know because i can see it in your eyes And i can hear it in your words So let the rain of your anger fall from the sky They act like you owe them your life and your blood And then they don't appreciate what you give them They think that you will shut up and take it And then they tell you that you're not strong enough for yourself They walk with their heads so high and so proud And then they look down if you lift your eyes They snap your bones in pieces and break you And then they tell you how wrong you are and it's your fault It makes you as sick as it makes me I know because i can see it in your eyes And i can hear it in your words So let the rain of your anger fall from the sky So let them know with raging fists and flaming guns how you feel! It makes you as sick as it makes me I know because i can see it in your eyes And i can hear it in your words So let the rain of your anger fall from the sky Written March 30th, 2002 © on Mar 29 2002 03:42 PM PST, daniel (6) joseph (6) scarpa (6)   20 • 0 • 1
