The Real World

I am stuck between my fantasy's and what is real
This is a contract i cannot deal
I cannot desctibe my meanings and what I feel
So my descriptions for fantasy and real have a bit of a swirl
When I imaginate,I'm in my fantasy world
Where I can fly on pegasus's and ride on squirrle's
Bench press elephants,and not have to worry about anything like all these little boys and girls
Afford expensive accesories and clothing,mind is over matter,like diamonds to pearls

Or when i'm sad and lonely,God just paints me a mural

But sadly,I knew this had a funny twist,a twirl
I wake up,and enter the real world
where I cannot feel
where the rich are rich,and the homeless can barely get a meal
where people barely meet ends meet and can't afford to pay another biil
where people get the things they need appealed
where people are frightened about whether they'll live today or get killed

where we're afraid of these blood thirsty vampires massacre for the thrill

where these people end all the pain with vicodin and benadryl
so know my fantasy's are dethroned,and I'm forced to live "real"
but i will not withstand living with your unidentified,unsupported meanings of real
nor your other uneducated,meaningless,mispelled words for keeping it "real"
but i have no other choice but to live in this scattered swirl
which we call "The Real World"
