The Man Got You Down? (G-Bull Writing)

Motherly Voice:
You can't succeed, you won't succeed.
You'll always be a failure; you suck at everything you do.
You're nothing more than a loser who should just give up.
Thus sayeth the looming figure above you....

Voice in head:
I can't succeed, I won't succeed
I'll always be a failure; I suck at everything I do.
I'm nothing more than a loser who should just give up.
Thus sayeth the looming figure inside of me....

Run as fast as you can
Hide wherever you can
Yell as loud as you can
Just don't let... the man... get you!!!

He's all around you,
He's inside you,
He's right behind you,
and he will GET YOU!

You can't succeed in a world like this.
Everything is sucked into the black abyss;
Nothing is left for you to cling to
The man is coming to GET YOU!!

Run as fast as you can
Hide wherever you can
Yell as loud as you can
Just don't let... the man... get you!!!

Pressure is building inside you,
You begin to crack along the edges.
Soon you'll fail,
and he will GET YOU!!

Run as fast as you can
Hide wherever you can
Yell as loud as you can
Just don't let... the man... get you!!!

You fall on your face,
You can't get up.
The man has got you,
but you mustn't stay for...

He's all around you,
He's inside you.
He's right behind you,
and he GOT YOU!

Run as fast as you can
Hide wherever you can
Yell as loud as you can
Just don't let... the man... get you!!!

You ran as fast as you could,
You hid everywhere you could
You yelled as loud as you could...
and the man didn't get you!!

Voice in Head:
I shall succeed, I have succeeded.
I was never a failure; I don't suck at all.
I'm nothing more than what I want to be.
Thus sayeth the voice inside of me....

So, I realize that this doesn't make a lot of sense, but I, personally, wrote this when I was in high school. That being said, I have now published one of the first writings to come out of the G-Bull Camp. There are still some more, so don't start judging yet... they get worse! Thanks!
