Song Lyrics From New York

By Ato Cox

"As I wake up from my

 sleep, having had a long dream,

   About so many

 things in life, but now I

 feel mean,

  Since I can't believe

 today I slept until

 midday.

 I snooze I lose and still

 doing it just after my

 birthday

   Which happens to  

be in the month of

 May

   This is not even the poem

 I had planned to 

say

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 I'm just kicking myself 

again out of frustration

  In not having enough 

willpower to make or

 follow my resolution

Which is get up 

earlier and and not go

 back to sleep

But it  seems to be a

 self promise so hard

 to keep.

   This is probably why

 in life I'm a financial 

loser 

   And missing more 

opportunities(job, 

guitar) due to being a

 

 

snoozer

 This poem is so

 random off the top of

 my head

   It's truly my reality I 

that you've just read.

  I should be doing

 something now here

 instead 

But I'm being

 prodded on to write

 what should be said

  I hope this effort 

poetic of mine is 

 appreciated

  And if you don't, ask

 me not again ,you'll 

simply be hated."
