THE CROOKED PLACE : ACT 2
Act 2
Scene 3
“Stasis”
When: 2020 (during lockdown)
Where: Kidd’s upstairs apartment – Los Angeles, CA
Who: Kidd
I spend my days in the tombs
With my thoughts to see me thru
In pictures behind my eyes
Then it starts to blind me!
The pink cloud, it fades
And so, remains the day and the truth!
Lost in a daze, don't end up in those chains
Think it through!
I stay on social wearing a mask
But my skin begins to crack
Small talk and nothing to say
And like a flood, it's coming!
Narcissistic rage
Slow motion, how it plays, burn the roof!
Patience is not a game
Now, hurry up and wait and don't move!
Is my path blood?
Is my path peace?
Living in stasis -
Let's see which one breaks
Stranded in it
In the middle of it
Overcome -
Let's see which one breaks
Voices raise and I withdraw
Stinging words and I hear them all
Don't react, don't let them see
As I'm biting thru my tongue!
Am I afraid, of all I think and say?
There's no excuse!
Trip the wire on the ground,
Or charge the walls and bring them down - choose!
Is my path blood?
Is my path peace?
Living in stasis -
Let's see which one breaks
Stranded in it
In the middle of it
Overcome -
Let's see which one breaks
Run!
Fight - Fight!
Run!
