Open Mic: Dread The Morning

That's gonna hurt tomorrow, I'm gonna Dread the Morning
I'm gonna wake up remembering everything I said this morning
Each day dies off the same way, it's like a death I'm mourning
I should have read the warning, it was red and roaring
What the hell was I thinking? I'm gonna Dread the Morning

I remember thinking we could have been a dying disaster
so it's safe to say happily ever after, Just not for me.

I got real problems, obvious answers constantly mean mugging
But the will power can't reciprocate my awareness murder witness
like I seen nothin'. Fiends druggin', Each EMT seemed sudden
I started out buzzing, to me and my team mugging I seen some shit
Like a baby in an oven, and women in public plugging for a quicker high
You think she was smuggling. Been robbed by my brother & my cousin
Replace one addiction with another since my significant other
Whispering the bitches name into the pillows of insignificant lovers
It feels bad when you can tell my dad was my mother, shut the fuck up.
You don't know how I came about learning what I had to discover
I bet you wasn't on Prozac since eleven years, yay high as SHIT constantly
I better u never replaced comfort with your fears and faced them honestly
I bet you never drank your last beer to get the courage to do a robbery
To get the dope to share with your peers like hope for a college degree
A rational mind, drug in an out of drug in & outs, I'd rather have coffee
Than be noddin in and out an an ottoman at 3am like a fucking zombie
I'm paranoid of the person I could be, a harmless woulda-coulda-shoulda
been like the rest of my homies. It took more than the death of my homies
It took more than my last breath and being reanimated like tests for the Nazis
I'm not trying to have a pity party, or for that matter, any party
I'd rather have my wits about me and be ashamed than missing my heartbeat

There's no more pain to numb,

I'm ready for tomorrow but I'm gonna Dread the Morning
I feel like I'm going to see a bit more death and mourning
But I'm working towards a better morning,

Agreed with LP. You have great content and my fav part was:

did i miss something where it became acceptable parlance for a teenaged white kid to toss around these kinds of epithets?

is it permissible now?

Like I said, I understand, I've been there, I was the same salty kid when I was younger when people advised how to improve and put it into perspective that what I wrote could use a lot of improvement.

I understand you may get salty over that, some people get very defensive and aggressive, I used to be one of those people. With time you'll learn you are not the best or no where near the best, and never will be the best. You'll also get to the point where you are plateauing in skill, and the only way to improve is to get this feedback you are getting. And real feedback like what you get here is not something you get in real life easily. Easy to impress those who listen to rap, difficult to impress rappers.

The last line was a great punchline mate
