Someday

 

So these days geeky is cool

But if you believe that I think your a fool
See geeky as it used to be no longer exists
Because right now geeky consists
Of wearing a superhero tshirt and some thick rimmed glasses
But geeky used to mean you tried in all your classes
See back in the day geeky meant you were smart
But these days intelligence has no part
In what people are trying to be
They only want to emulate what they see on tv 
That Its cool to be ignorant in every way
That you should just waste your potential each day
and deep down you may really want to open a book 
But you won't because you're afraid of how it'll make you look
Afraid it'll make you look smarter
Afraid you'll look like your'e trying harder
Than all of your peers around you
Because if you look like that than they're bound to
Try and bring you back down to where they are
Because if you do good by yourself and start going far
Than they have no excuse to stay behind
And they can't handle that in their selfish minds
So they use any strings they can to hold you back
Because they want you to lack
the skills you need to get ahead
But you don't even try to cut their threads
You say if I don't try then I can't fail
But I'm telling you the titanic may have sunk but at least it did sail
And yes a lot of people died
But no one blames the people because they tried
They blame what hid under the water
I'm talking bout the ice
Just like you hiding under a vice
Wether it's drugs drinking or just being lazy
The way you people act is driving me crazy
Cuz all you ever say is more more more
But you never ask for anything that's gonna let you soar
You can't have fun unless you're drunk or high
Your mama may not know but if she did she might cry
And since I'm calling you out that makes me a hater
Just because I'm not gonna be the one cater
To all of your stupid little insecurities
And I'm not going to ignore your many impurities
Not trying is cool I know, I've had a lot of practice
So don't take this poem as a personal attack it's
just something I wanted to say
I hope geeky is smart and cool someday
