Crazy Circus

poem about respect and madness in a hip-hop style

 

Crazy Circus (just a wrap)

We’re runnin’ like chickens with our heads cut off,
Squealing like piggies round the old food trough,
Stuck on a treadmill and we can’t get off,
It’s a crazy circus

Lost and confused, walkin in a trance,
Common sense needs a second chance,
But time is runnin out gotta change our stance,
Such a crazy circus

Just lookin’ for respect we think we know
But the real truth is you reap what you sow

Under the bigtop we’re up on the stage
Spillin’ and killin’ lost in a rage
Why can’t we just turn the page
Of this crazy circus

Strutin’ our stuff actin’ real cool
Posin’ in the mirror ready for a duel
Now who do you think is the real fool
What a crazy circus

The old ringmaster we’re the main attraction
Always lookin’ for some kind of action
Spinnin’ our wheels losin’ our traction
In this crazy circus

Just lookin’ for respect we act like we know
But the real truth is you reap what you sow

I like the part "Just lookin’ for respect we act like we know
But the real truth is you reap what you sow"
but the cool, duel, fool and the attraction, action,traction didn't quite work for me, the rest was fine.

The old white men can't jump myth...lol. Anyways, I like the bip-bap rhythm of this piece, and since I'm a hip-hop head anyway, I was thinking hip-hop before I even read your author's note. Good job, and, unlike the hip-hop GARBAGE they play on the airways today, your lyrics actually had a meaning and message to them.
