Self Help - Beau

He's not an emo, and he's not depressed
No one in his family has even died yet
He's never been to jail; never lost a wife
Yet for some reason, his existence is still riddled with strife

He graduated school at the top of his class
Never dropped out; he was too smart for that
Never been broke, never been homeless
But he's bad off, and everyone knows this

He's plagued by a chemical and its insidiousness
And 10 out of 10 doctors agree with this
He feels he's too smart for this world, so he drinks to squelch
The plaguing ideas others deem as insane. He calls drinking "self help".

  1. I'm sure you've talked about switching up styles the last few weeks, but haven't. Everything's been dope regardless and this is no exception.
