Don't Get a Game Over

Are you tired of feeling stuck? Have you been in a pretty crummy apartment situation or just don't have the best living situation? Why not just make the best of everything you DO have instead, even if you're totally homeless? A freedom anthem with a nerdy twist, enjoy this spoken word awesomeness that I will be performing at the next open mic nite that I make it to! Enjoy!

Shouldn’t we all have a place to live?
A place to call home?
A place to be free?

Can't everyone be granted the same essential needs we need to thrive
No matter how poor in resources
And how rigid your story is?
Of course, you must possess the willingness to try...

In this world known as madness
Having a place to stay shouldn't be a PRIVILEGE!
It should be a RIGHT!
No matter how ridiculously dumb you are,
Even if you're some kind of criminal mastermind who wants to take over the world
Or harms little children
You deserve a place to live
Even if it's bare with bars...

Only CRIMINALS deserve to live in confinement
Not innocent, successful people facing extreme tragedy or bad luck...

Misfortune seems to strike us all at one point in our lives
But living in HELL is almost as bad as being in JAIL
Making you feel frail
While you're searching for your holy grail
And thirsty for gold...

A rugged past can lead to a stronger soul that can be mended whole
But confinement is poison
Especially when the eagle needs to be free...

When false hope is constantly given
Your trust in humanity and even family dissipates like evaporating water

While the madness brews
Hope is anew
Derailing depression hastefully to avoid wasting your precious life...

The eagle needs to be free
Needing to flee
From the swarm of bees
Known as madness...
Causing crushing catastrophe
As ailment impedes success and golden goals...

Everyone has been told that they only live once...
No, there's no restart button, no cheat codes, no hacks, no infinite lives...
There's no continues either...

BUT...!

You only have ONE life...
ONE shot to learn the meaning of beauty
One heart to make a difference
And to glorify everything that you're thankful to have!

You can't SURRENDER!
What if you were a SOLDIER?
You can't be broken
And must always fight to the DEATH!

No one can TELL you what to do!
No human being deserves to be DISRESPECTED!
If you see smoke
You must venture down your own path and destroy the wasteful noise!

Freedom will come if YOU make it happen
Life will emerge right before your eyes
When you project your battle cry
And stop sitting on your LAZY ASS COMPLAINING instead of actually doing...

The answer to unlock the door is yours to explore...

You can't let life eat you alive!
You can't let temporary confinement bring you down!
You can't let a loop keep you twisted forever!

Even if you don't have a stable place to land
And your view of hope is bland
The outside world is yours to take flight...

Fly away!
Soar towards the light!
Fly through skies that may be fading
And you'll learn the true meaning of beauty!
Don't get a game over while you're at it either!
