Sometimes

Mr. Not

sometimes im mad
sometimes im not

sometimes I'm mad at the world
sometimes at the sky

sometimes I'm mad at people who grew up in a normal family
sometimes people with luck enough to get famous young

sometimes I'm mad because they won't have to struggle
sometimes because my friend has to deal drugs to make an income

sometimes I'm mad because my friend can't get the help they need
sometimes I'm mad at the people who can

sometimes I'm scared I won't have a future
and I'm mad at people with a future because of that

sometimes I fear my friends' safety
and I'm mad because some won't have to risk anything for things they need

sometimes I can't help but dream about a world where everything is perfect
and then I get mad again because I remember some won't have to shit to get what i want most

and sometimes I'm mad because I show weakness
but at the end of the day, no one is unbeatable

    It’s easy to get angry and sad about things . I can relate .. In a way , to some of what you say . Sometimes we want the things thAt should have been ours .. like growing up in that normal family

    Mad for all sorts of reasons, that's what we are. A whole litany of a normal person's 'madness.' What 's beautiful here is that the poetic persona is looking out of themselves and thinking of others. That is a real connection. Thanks for sharing.
