Latest Review: You Are A Christian. NOW WHAT? by James Rondinone

I tried

to keep up with the popular kids,
to be Mr.Charismatic
to be cool like the Arctic
to be hot like the estival heat
to be fit like an athlete
to keep up with the popular kids

I tried
God knows I did try,
but why?

It was all trial and error
nobody knew my name
was referred to as failure

a misfit like Social Club
an anomaly like Lecrae
a renegade like Script
an alien like Alex Faith

Most of y'all don't know who those are
and it doesn't even matter that much
we are all dust -once upon a time star
you don't have to read between any line
my central message to you is shine. Shine,
no need to try to be. Tell your negativite mind - Hush!
