Phoenix James - SENDING OUT AN SOS (Afro-Gee Mix) (Official Audio) Spoken Word Poetry

Recently
To me
These days seem like all I need is to get away
Like my life is a mess
And the fight to help myself just seems so helpless
Like all I can do is send out an SOS
And hope for something or someone to come and end my distress
Like I'm in stormy winds in a sinking ship
With the cold ocean beating against my chest like steel cord
With no life preserver to preserve my life if I should get tossed overboard
I'm lost in the sea of no hope and what's more I can't see the lord
I feel so forsaken and forlorn sometimes I wish I was never born
My heart hurts so much these days I think a piece is torn
Or was soaked in honey and then left for bees to swarm

But nevertheless unlike that Candyman I seek no revenge
I just sit away alone in my room and contemplate my end
Because throughout my life I have cried so many nights and considered
Suicide again and again
And sometimes in my mind my death means more than my life
Because I just ain't got those kind of friends
I mean
It seems hopeless
Like mostly everybody just wants to take away from me
And when I ain't got what they want
They just want to break away from me
Maybe when I'm gone they'll just want me
But honestly
That I don't see

Because it's all for one and one for all now
Meaning, he's turned tough and wants all the cake in town
And these days they just don't make enough to go around
So to call these people friends is like
Taking two steps up to fall six steps down
Because when I'm lost
So-called friends just can't be found
On whom can I depend when I'm down and out
Perhaps I've just misunderstood what friendships are about
I wonder could I just stop and end this now
By separating myself from people and my surroundings for a while
I can't breathe and I can't think and I can't smile
I'm under pressure and I'm in panic
I see danger up ahead
I'm in a sinking ship
And titanics and icebergs just don't mix

I feel all choked again
Like anxiety's gripping at my throat again
I feel like I can't cope again
I feel like I'm floating in that lifeboat of no hope again
I feel like I'm at the end of my rope again
And that's why recently
To me
These days seem like all I need is to get away
Like all I need is to get away
Like all I need is to get away
Like all I need is to get away
Like all I need
Is to get
A
Way
