Obsidian

David Andrew McCoy

Free verse
Obsidian and Osiris
In the lab
Jotten down they thoughts upon Papyrus
You can see right through my Iris
Everything Incorporated
Know there ain't no minus
I used to be like Royalty
They used to call me Highness
To Awaken to the truth of Life
You must take off your Blindas
If they really wanna know Us,
All they have to do is find Us...
