The Nobody Syndrome



Overlooked...
Like a beggar under the interstate's overpass seen by the working class on their daily commutes to work
If you don't rap, joke, or twerk, or perform pranks
Then, nine times out of ten...
You're a nobody, but let me be frank
I don't want to seem illogical but in this world filled with diabolicals...
You're better off taking the path that the prodigal son did when his life unruly and destruction was the aftermath
Because nobodies are the bodies trying not to be in plain sight
No designer shopping habits, or spur of the moment flights
No champagne tabs, expensive cars, or flashing lights to hide the darkness
The life of luxury is a lie
Because only God can be luxurious, He created all beings and The Earth they dwell in
Why lose sight, and follow the blind when you can be the apple of His eye?
The Nobody Syndrome...
True enough, it sucks to be misfit, and underated
Just remember Yah'huah created us all, and only Him we owe a payment
Appreciate being the underdog, and accept it for what it is
Because when you're famous, and you slip up, the whole world will know your biz
