aimed to miss

We aim to miss
Stepping up to the target
Trying to be the hardest
From which all fall the furthest
But regardless
Even If u choose to listen to the system and ware retro elevens
I haven’t heard about the coon specials making people a target
Society is a red dot
Oh my gosh
You’re a target
But even the ones you call dumb aren’t that Retarted
Listen….
If they spend 200 dollars on shoes
When they know they can’t afford it
They won’t be able to pay their mortgage
And it won’t even look like extortion
That’s the system operating…..
Delegating
Making meditation
Self-examination
Rather than it being your chance to relax and take a breath
And that’s how we aim to miss
We are aimed to miss
When Walking amidst
The risk
That follows
When you imitate Arnold Schwarzenegger’s
Stunt doubles
Who get paid to do what they do
And could care less about our troubles
But since were talking about troubles
Lets paint pictures that define struggles
Like some depress kid
That society won’t care about
Until the press get
A picture of his casket
And a video tape of the mother reading his good bye note
Is this what it takes to send the message?
we aim to miss
Aiming aimless
Refusing to shoot for the moon
Because we don’t realize
That if we missed we would land around the stars
Instead dreaming about the latest stars
Their money and their cars
Who rap about gang violence
But don’t know the affects of poverty and cultural wars
We are aimed to miss
