Check out the poem. Originally it was a broken up freestyle, but I eventually put it together as a song. This song is dedicated to everyone feeling alone, neglected, or forgotten about. I know I felt this way, so I summed up my feelings into an instrumental. Just know if you're out here feeling by yourself, other people are out here too going through the same thing. You matter in this World... as a distinct voice to be heard in a certain fashion. Don't let anyone tell you different.

Oblivion is the state of forgetfulness
Reaching out to all the people that fit with this

What it consists?
Just a bunch of diss
That persists
In my life, that's what exists

Struggles in life, you pay the price
Dealing with the world's vice scares us like mice
Slapped in the face with a race with a bunch of fakes --
Can't keep up with the pace

Oblivion is the state of forgetfulness,
Reaching out to all the people that fit with this
Oblivion is the state of forgetfulness
Reaching out to all the people that fit with this

Sat to the side,
Placed to the back burner
Life's on the line,
Just a fact, that's negligent murder
This applied to and from my brain network
even though no blood is shed, It still hurts

No love from friends since I'm so different
And my moms? psh... she feels indifferent
About the whole situation -- that is
That's why im known as, "That kid"

No say,
She can't relate to nothin' I convey
Ducktaped in the room with blazed intakes
Feelings aren't mutual
I don't even see the sky as blue no more

It sucks,
to know the one that's suppose to care ain't there
What about all your friends that said they was here?

All alone,
pain you have to bear,
Thoughts rushed though the night,
finally drops a tear --

What do I fear?
(State of forgetfulness)
What do I fear?
(State of forgetfulness)
What do I fear?
(State of forgetfulness)
What do I fear?
(State of forgetfulness)
