Feed Your Brain with both Hands

let’s feed your brain with both hands

don’t snap your wrist with rubber bands

because I’m unable to comprehend

I just can’t seem to understand

why so many people hate upon me

it really is, just, so fucking crazy

considering they don’t even know me

hatred’s all I ever get given freely

don’t they know how lucky they’d be

to spend quality time in my company?

despite the hard exterior they see

I’m full of kindness and generosity

quit projecting your own shit on me

look deep within yourself honestly

if you’re successful you’ll finally see

everything that made you all hate me

was owned by each of you entirely

now that you’re able to see things clearly

I invite you to pull up a chair beside me

I don’t expect to be liked by everybody

but as long as we converse honestly

I’ve no doubt that most of you will see

I was never unkind nor out to make enemies

all I have is love for you and I give it freely
