Float
A singularity I float alone, in the water that you’re all reeling
Staying afloat only by my talent to scope a feeling
I can cope with 1,000 blows to break a single ceiling
Glass chandeliers and Champaign sipped in bad taste
We celebrate the death of a mad man on word that was delivered post haste
Portland cement is mixed to make concrete rock and steel
It’s the fourth street past the holly that makes folks feel the need to rob and steal
A crooked view scewed by misused tolerance
They thought they had a handle on the medicine
But it had a side effect list longer than
A will for a Wal-Mart Family death event
If we all shopped at the same stores and saw ourselves as one whole
We’d absolve the salt from these shores and take fault for all we owe
There instead we instill a bound on who is lost and what we found
We manifest our own regress and move away from who is less
Tho if that were found by judgment sound we’d surely let them stick around
We’re all just mammals simple young animals
Walking in a world too large to get a handle on
Wading in the water we share the same boat
If you tip over your neighbor then none of us will float
