i was born under no complications
abnormality, anomaly, or ailments
with increased melanin, virilization
and no will toward my god or my nation
am i truly on a side?
or an inadvertent state of mind?
i'm just an actor
and you're just an actor too
caught in an outline
i'm in the dark like you
need only damage my prefrontal cortex (to change)
my personality, memory, and focus (or)
suffer stroke, limit blood, choking brain cells (to)
destroy my language, block reliable signals
am i just a failing mind?
or circumstance of how events combine?
i'm just an actor
and you're just an actor too
caught in an outline
i'm in the dark like
i could have been anything
but foolishly pride what i've become
and all that defines me will not survive me when i'm gone
cause i'm just an actor
and you're just an actor too
caught in an outline
well i'm in the dark like you
i play a part still
and you've been a party to
a play with no writer
well i'm in the dark like you
