THE BREAKING POINT
by ISIAH
The human mentality and mental brain capacity
Breaks at one point.
The breaking point where we snap,
And what happens is like catastrophe,
But what happens at the breaking point is the unseen
Between quotes, rules, and laws
,
What we do, what we say, what we say
.
Something is going to happen and then
SNAP!
If you keep bending something
,
It’s going to start breaking
,
And that’s because we go through a struggle.
A struggle against racial discrimination,
Poverty, abuse, disorder,
To find out which one of us is obsolete.
So let the world be themselves
,
And hide your true breaking point
Because if you don’t,
The world around you will collapse into
Thousands of pieces of what you used to call
A life
.
Don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself,
Because you’re the only defender
,
And you aren’t going to get no help.
When you do hit that breaking point
With your bad man intentions,
Settle down, because
Life is unexpected, and you might just catch the big one.
And just to let you know
That breaking point
Isn’t caused by what’s there
.
It’s caused by what’s missing.
