you've got your life handed to you on a silver platter by God
with all of the gold etched into it with rubies and diamonds
well, I'll tell you something,
my platter was handed to me and taken away several times
and you want to know what was on my platter?
shit. lots of it. mountains!
and sitting at the top of my tallest mountain was an emerald.
such a convenient place to put a jewel of that kind
and everyday I climb the mountains of shit, sleeping and breathing,
as I wait for it to go away,
so I can make it to the emerald
that's not even worth half of your platter
but hell I still have one so that's all that matters, right?
and even if I have to pick through all of this rubbish to get to a better place
I'll do it
because I learned things along the way that you never got to learn
so I bid you luck as you will soon enter reality that
I have already been living in my entire life
and I bid you even more luck as you start the journey up that pile of shit,
something I'm soon to be finished with.
