dey seem so lost smtmz bt lead da pack neverthe less...
dey can drive to da Sahara Desert unaided, when actually they started for the neighbourhood Grocery Shop...
dey forget their IIT-IIM-MIT qualifications n behave like an adolescent teen wen a PYT passes by...
dey gossip,dey bitch no less bt da women gt all da top honours in these depttz...
dey can't follow da cooking instructions on a ready-to-eat pack, bt dey r self-made men...
dey can rmb all da shortcuts n da keys for da video n online games, bt even after living 3 yrz in the same house dont know which switch is for da fan...
dey can hit rats,spiders etc...but dey demselves are shit scared of Sales...esp 'Clearance Sales'...
dey r so lazy that dey wud rather stay hungry dan get-up-&-raid-da-fridge...
dey have an excuse everynite why a Beer is damn Essential n a LSD for dem tonite, bt see thru our excuses for our shoppin sprees completely...

f for fear...f for fun...

its da fear within dat holds u back,
itz da fear imagines n creates new sad balloons of trivial things,
itz da fear dat clams u up...
itz da fear dat looses ur tongue too...
itz da fear dat restricts ur horizons...
itz da fear pushes u forward...though sometimes,
itz da fear dat dwarfs u...while still standing tall...
itz da fear dat says "datz itz allrite", though itz all wrong...
itz da fear dat creates a glass jail...
itz da fear...n not ur spirit...dat says "how can i?"
itz da fear dat creates monsters out of normal people...in our minds
itz da fear dat questions u everytime incessantly...
itz da fear depletes ur hold on life...
itz da fear dat corrodes ur confidence...
itz da fear gives birth to a crisis...
itz da fear dat brews da storms of life...
itz da fear dat says, "dis is destiny.period."
itz da fear steers ur life...to where we dont want to go...
itz da fear dat makes default seem like da only option...
itz da fear dat makes rectangles out of circles...
itz da fear dat makes us oblivious of our own strengths...
itz da fear dat makes us...what we think "i can't ever be like this"
itz da fear dat makes us afraid...
itz da fear dat doesn't let u fly...
itz da fear dat doesnt make da ends of the mouth reach towards the ceiling of da eyes...
itz da fear dat makes u dead...while still breathing...

let go...and live... ... ...
