a new darkness, an old darkness...

there exists some darkness in all our lives,
some are new,some are centuries old...
some are family, some are guests...
itz the new one that engulfs you in itz grips...

the old one is easy,
itz the new one that worries u...

the old one is history,
the new one is a mystery...

the old one has its own symptoms,
the new one slowly reveals itself...

the old one is like family,
the new one is a first-time guest...

the old one already has its time period clocked,
the new one will take its own sweet time ...

the old one just passes you by,
itz the new one that bothers u ...

the old one is an old old maid,
the new one is a virgin...

the old one lulls you to sleep,
itz the new one that keeps you awake...

the old one just goes away,
itz the new one that wills your willpower...

the old one doesn't miss a beat,
itz the new one that makes u get up n take notice...

the old one doesn't bat an eyelid,
itz the new one that forces decisions...

the old one is a family heirloom,
the new one is an in-thing piece...

the old one is brushed aside,
the new one is flaunted...

the old one is been-there-done-that,
the new one is new...
