The falling world
The day was hot
My throat was in a knot
It's the day I took the shot
The air stood still
Suffocating seem real
The burning inside
Made me wanna cry
This shot is such a lie
Is this what it feels like to die
My arms and legs begin to twitch
I wish I had a turn off switch
My face begins to get numb
I begin thinking this was dumb
I could hear myself scream
As if I was in a dream
My vision begin to dim as if the light bulbs was going to blow
I feel so low just because i did what I was told
Now the story behind cas9 unfolds
It's in the shot's you was told
About this poem
About a curse that is unfolding a fortold .
