Analysis of Definition of insanity

Laci D Lycan 1986 (Arkansas)



Out of my mind?
 maybe that's true...
Wish I was out of my feelings..  
a vacation is long overdue.
Not sure how much longer I can get through.
Are you ready?
cuz my crazy about to come unglued.
Really feeling like I got nothing left to lose.
About to blow an electrical fuse from all this damn emotional abuse

Where do you put the world when your shoulders need a break.
But everything you do is for someone else's sake. Not enough give and way too much take.
 Overdosing on venom from all you poisonous snakes.
So you want to call me crazy?
....yeah... you know.. I think I am.
Must be to have ever believed that you gave a damn. But that's ok because the pain made me who I  am.  Ha.
You must not understand...
just so f****** confused.
Baby I'm not broken
I'm just temporarily bruised...
So fucking over all this being used and abused.
If you thought i was mental before I'm about to blow your mind!!!
When I  snap out of this funk and straight up on my grind.
Leaving you and all your minions far far behind.
At the drop of a hat flipping back to the top, forgetting all you what's your names....
Because bad b****** only pause..... never stop!!!.
So now that we've established
 I'm different from the rest.
 You can call it whatever
but I call it blessed.
You mistake it as weak because my emotions never suppressed oppressed or hidden...
Especially never overridden by your standard of sane
F*** your way!!!!!
I prefer the fast lane!!!!
So I can pass you up while you cry and complain. Just to maintain your simplicity...
 you call it crazy...

I call it intensity.....
