Life's Flight

Life's Flight

Living an honest life

is like a plane that is flying

Corruption tends to destroy

slowly tearing apart everything

New destination "Rock Bottom"

As you descend to a plummet

Now you've spawned a seed

To the attitude known as "Fuck It"

How long will it be this time

Living a life of no remorse

Until you spiral out of control

Steady on a crash coarse

Yeah you may have a parachute

and survive just fine

But so far you've been lucky

What if the chute doesn't open next time

You only get so many chances

Which are you destined to pick

Flight Heavenly 7's

Or Flight 666

About the Creator

Thomas F

I was shot in the face at point blank range with a double barrel 12 gage during an strong arm robbery that quickly turned into an Attempted Murder. Although I'm missing my right eye and a bullet in my brain. I AM STILL ME & I AM STILL HERE
