I don’t want to be here

I don’t want to be anywhere

Anywhere that is required Of me

It never lets me just be me

Let me exist in the shadow

Periodically wanting me to interject

As if I’ve always been here

I don’t want to be here

Don’t want any sense of responsibility

Don’t want any bill to call upon me

Don’t want to be dependent upon

Just want to breathe every day until the sun is gone

Just want to breathe every day under moonlight

Seeing waves caress my blight

I don’t want to be here

Where people say hello before my name

Where there’s an expectation that I do the same

Where everyday is not really for me

Cause someone somewhere needs me

Wanting me to do what they wouldn’t do for me

I don’t want to be here

Staring in the air mindlessly

But always on call in a minute

Waiting a call, text some type of message

When my cycle of existence

Is based on someone else’s persistence
