Can't

Can’t can’t can’t
I’m sick of hearing can’t
Just take your can’t
And shove it up your pants
You’re too this, you’re too that
You’re too short, you’re too fat
You can’t drive
You can’t date
You can’t handle my baggage
Excuses excuses
I love you
I want you to be safe
I don’t want you to get hurt
I want you to study
I want you to meet people
I want you to be friendly
And socially interact more
Well excuse me!
Maybe I’m not a social person
Maybe I want to get hurt
Pain makes you stronger
Maybe I don’t want you to care about me
Or maybe I do

Can’t can’t can’t
Incapability
No opportunites
Irresponsibility
I’m stuck in this room
In this dorm
In this university
In this city
In this state
In this nation
On this planet
This corrupt planet
And I can’t get out
CAN’T
I can’t escape this
Family
Finances
Friends

Trapped in this life
My freedom hindered
Not only by others
But by myself
My own consciousness
My mind
My limited mind
And body
My weakness
My poorness
My associations
And lack of associations
Boredom
Blah
No true happiness
Only temporary pleasures

I want what’s best for you
To be happy
To be yourself
To find yourself
Well excuse me!
Maybe you make me happy
That’s right…
YOU!
Not him
Not her
Not me
But YOU!
You couldn’t handle me
My baggage
My struggles and drama
Well maybe I want to
I care
I’m not afraid

I’m trapped in my mind
By others’ can’ts
The can’ts surround my mind
Like a medieval military
Of crusaders
Knights and warriors
Of the nation of Can’t
I want to fight back
And escape my Can’t-surrounded mind
But outnumbered I am
So many can’ts
But so few of us
We would surely die

So I must stay in my mind
Until the Can’t Crusaders conquer it
And I peacefully die
Die to my future

Unless…
Unless someone comes to the rescue
And together
WE CAN!
Victory

Can't
