Seeing Red

I'm seeing red

It helps me see things straight

I'm doing everything

For the purpose of improvementDon't ask me why

'Cuz it don't faze me one iota

I'm the alpha and omega

The beginning and the endIt's just the warm up for the work ahead

Food for my mind, emotionally seared

Beckons as big as an atomic bomb

Wipe off my cosmetic tears

I'm seeing redI open my eyes

It roots me to the spot

So young at heart

Independent in thought and mindTest my nerves

I'm doing this for kicks

And it gives me everything

That is here for me to findDon't ask me when I began to hate

'Cuz I don't recall a time I didn't

Am I the only one of my kind?

NoAnd who is not a parasite?

Can you name me just one?

I see your eyes and I know for a fact

I'm not your only son
