About It

Right now things are going well for me
It's clear that if I keep following my dreams I'm gonna live wealthily
So if I care about business class flights
Why not care about those who are in a fight
Against hunger and social issues
See, when I look at these kids in worn out disagrees, pain visits every tissue
Tell Journalists that, they foresee a big and selling issue
Turning a blind eye to the fact that the same kids who feed on whatever is at hand
Are meant to be our young kings in the end
So we introduce them to sex and violence
Telling them these things are labelled as trends
Play Juicy J's in belief that his Bandz will make em dance
They do what they found us doing
And  introduce nicotine and weed to their lungs
And smoke, forgetting that the same lungs have fungus
It's paining man,
We live in a free world but we've learnt to imprison ourselves
Putting our humanity and brain in shelves
Forcing ourselves into the society's shells
That sells
To us that the brain is a combination of tiny cells
So we embrace what the internet sells
Going further and implement it, thus it melts
The true us
She once believed a can of red bull will one day give her wings
Perhaps she can fly closer to her dreams
But this is real life
You ain't an overachiever by getting more likes
I'm talking about the likes
Of her and him
Who need likes to feel like her and him
Creating their own hell and hymns
Putting on spiritual sun shades, avoiding the beam
That can help everything dawn to us
It's a cold world, every girl wants to look hot
Believing a bite on some Liquorice can make her the all sort
I use a pen to free my thoughts
Don't bullet proof yourself cause I'm not firing shots
Just stating the facts
Look at the stats,
We're in serious danger.

Honda Fit

Honda Fit I know a girl who gives me palpitations of a higher magnitude Whenever she walks by, my earth quakes, I guess she sends signals through millibars Her face is a universe, eyes like thrilling stars And the feeling starts.... I call her Rover, she comes from an exotic Range Curves like vines, poisonous hips I bet roses smell bitter compared to her scrumptious lips Girl is shaped like a Coca-Cola bottle Turning a blind eye that she's empty when the sweetness is gone She's the type of girl all the boys wanna smash A Coca-Cola bottle on 7.8millibars, they have dropped her, luckily she never smashed She has turned into a port where boys park their genitals She lost herself, trying to please friends Following trends She plays the bitching part in the ends Caring about designer clothes Focusing on who's hot and got the best flows She likes making noise, like an empty can If she was a mother, I'm sure she'd be packing tins of empty Nan They call ...

From Values To Virtues

Yesterday I was watching a certain episode . The sister said I don't believe in values. And everyone was like what? Then what she shared was very profound. Values are based on outside - like religion, culture, environment - and it is an acquired sanskara . But virtues are divine qualities of the supreme soul which we ought to imbibe. The supreme soul is happy, loving, peaceful, blissful, compassionate, ocean of knowledge, kindness whereas values could be very related to material world or like a protocol - we are so and so religion or caste and our value is to eat this or not eat this or marry like this or not marry like this etc. Coming to marriage, we have been in this institute forever and somehow it is now so wrong more than ever before in terms of its approach, its expected outcomes and hence the very foundation of this institute is shaking. In today's world we are trying to fill our happiness from each other rather than filling ourselves with happiness ...

This Is How You Lose Her

Its the blue ticks you send towards hee when too busy to tell her that at least "you busy" It's the short calls when she wants to talk to you longer It’s the texts you answer at your convenience. It’s the snaps you look at then put down your phone. Its putting friends first before her. It’s every like when you’re bored because you’re wondering what she’s up to. It’s every canceled plan when something better comes along. It’s the attention you give that’s the bare minimum. But she takes it. Yeah she takes it Because at least for that moment, she has your time and attention when she’s always given you all of hers. It’s every surprise you take for granted. Even though, she thought a lot about it for a while. It’s not caring enough to even consider reciprocating those things. It’s the favor if you need one, that always goes answered every time. Even though she’d never ask the same. It...
