Rap race The consequences of the dive from interstate to country drive we strive to leave the city scape our piece of green,our claim to stake we dont care who we have to push from a to b just got to rush get off the loop, get out of town we walk, dont walk ourselves around from five til nine from nine til five we earn the buck to stay alive with A1 credit, like the rest we'll Am. express ourselves to death to spend a day among the pines we'll take the stress and parking fines to fish the lake and hike the trail we'll get that raise and make that sale fifteen meetings in one day for Disneyland, the price we pay from now until the day we die we never stop to ask, just..... Why? |

To pay the taxes baby....TAXES & GROCERIES LOL Why ask why... love the cadence in this statement of truth. Its a viscous, monotonous cycle ... but seems to make the world go round... Words of wisdom Olias. There are two lasting bequests |

Oh, I loved this Olias! There are so many powerful statements in this piece. You've got me wishing I was out for a drive right now to get away and enjoy ... thank you for this great journey through your words! Best wishes, /Kit |
