What's in a Name

	WHAT IS IN A NAME Kelly was walking down the street Didn’t have enough to eat Nowhere to sleep Haunted by defeat; steady feeling the creep. Wasn’t supposed to be like this, Opportunities missed; Stuck cleaning up vomit and piss. Must be for a good cause; Cause otherwise it would give pause; Have to reconsider.., look for flaws. All this shit can be so sad. Painted as deadbeat mad; Sold-out soul; make anyone look bad. But anyone won’t feel the shame; Kelly still dodging the blame.., Leaving redemption coming-up lame. Talking about.., Unforgiven sin; Justified with the usual spin; Trapped like a disease buried within.

WHAT IS IN A NAME

Kelly was walking down the street
Didn’t have enough to eat
Nowhere to sleep
Haunted by defeat; steady feeling the creep.

Wasn’t supposed to be like this,
Opportunities missed;
Stuck cleaning up vomit and piss.

Must be for a good cause;
Cause otherwise it would give pause;
Have to reconsider.., look for flaws.

All this shit can be so sad.
Painted as deadbeat mad;
Sold-out soul; make anyone look bad.

But anyone won’t feel the shame;
Kelly still dodging the blame..,
Leaving redemption coming-up lame.

Talking about..,

Unforgiven sin;
Justified with the usual spin;
Trapped like a disease buried within.

		While.., Looking for The Answer; Without asking The Question. Stress feeding The Cancer; Hopeless without Truth and Consequence; Without Confession. But.., Don’t want to see Don’t want to recognize “What will they say about me?” Will they understand; will they sympathize. Or sit in judgment.., in damnation; Exposed for all to see. Bad breath and constipation; So hit the knees and surrender a desperate plea.., Of course.., Won’t do any good; Poisons the food. Tarnished by its touch; Leaving all lewd, crude and rude.., Insufferable and with an attitude. Then.., And when the Zanies and Meth can no longer save; Everybody just got to learn to behave. Leave enough of what we all crave. And it be like heaven in hell.., At least for a couple of days. Couple of days; couple of nights; Then it’s like before; giving us the frights. Becoming impossible to ignore; getting us all Screaming for our constitutional rights. And other shit that won’t address the blame – the shame Going downhill; worse than the same.., out goes the flame. Lost in the dark; feeling abused and confused; going insane; Desperate for a hint of reality to reduce, deduce.., And reclaim; Take aim and explain; What is.., in a name? Cause nobody is pure That’s for sure; Turning a divine comedy Into a blockbuster tragedy; Time to change the strategy; End the cycle; search for the truth; praying for a remedy.., Leaving nobody left to blame.., gone is the shame.., Redeemed and freed from jeopardy. The emptiness of fortune and fame always beats the game.
