Feel the Feels
Sometimes I feel Emotional
But then I am Reminded a man doesn’t feel
Not even when you feel that that impact on your head
Don’t feel that pain, just get up and keep playing
Don’t you dare show your feelings
Even in constant pain, don’t you dare cry
When you feel that tear come out
Suck it up, bitch!
Don’t be a bitch—
Don't feel pain
Don’t feel depressed,
Don’t feel stressed
You can’t feel hurt when your girl cheats on you—
Expected to feel nothing,
“Fuck that bitch” you say
But inside your heart is crying
Your heart is in the feels,
Feeling every inch of pain
Feeling depressed
But on the outside you feel “fine”
Don’t you dare care
Don’t feel attached to your wifey
Feel nothing
Feel NOTHING!
“Soft guys don’t play”
Exactly coach, soft guys don’t tend to make it far
Constantly having feelings
One-night stands are foreign to feelings
That one-night stand caught those feelings
Feel this
Feel that
Don’t feel that way
But can I tell you something?
Even tho I’m scared
I have hella feelings for you
But I gotta act like I don’t fucking care
Why am I so scared to show you my feelings?
What have I become?
Someone so unrecognizable
No longer shows any type of feelings
Only “I’m fine”
Is that what you think about your feelings?
All those beautiful feelings reduced to two simple words:
Feel confident
Lost
Feel Happy
Depressed...
Dear Future Generations,
America, you claim WE are the problem
That MY people bring in drugs
That WE deal the toxicity that flow the very slums WE live in
But I’m no drug dealer
...
But a dealer of inspiration
Showing that Aspirations for US aren’t impossible
That we can Dream
Like the DREAMERs
Ellos tambien suena
Dream to be someone in this land of opportunity
Pero families are still separated
But hey MR.President
Latinos aren’t lazy
WE don’t line up on the lines to get food stamps and welfare
White people like you claim the most
You think cause you're American you are entitled to these rights?
What happened to the “American Dream”?
That hard work and dedication will get you a stable lifestyle
But NO!
Not those aspirations of Becoming a Drug Lord
I don’t want to become a “EL Chapo”
OR a “Pablo Escobar”
But a Carlos Slim… I bet most of you don’t know who that is
No, he isn’t a drug Lord!
Shit!
WE don’t all deal drugs!
But he is a dealer…
A dealer of stocks and investments
I bet he can provide his taxes MR.President
Even better he can afford to build that wall you claim will keep us out
But in reality, WE want you out!
White people like you, who claim WE are threats
But yet celebrate Cinco DE Mayo…
You Idiot that isn’t even our Independence Day!
September 16th, 1810...
Not even your Ivy League education
Educated you right, Mr.President
Mexicans
Salvadorians
Brazilians
Colombians
Ecuadorians
Peruvians
Dominicans
Puerto Ricans
Cubans
AND the rest of my Hermanos y Hermanas
WE ARE Latinos!
Latinos Siempre Unidos
Let me remind you that the United States isn’t all American
New Mexico
California
Nevada
Utah
Arizona
Colorado
Wyoming
Todos eran de Mexico!
Let me not get started on what happened to my hermanos y hermanas de Panama!
MR. President I may not attend no Ivy League
I may have almost been part of the 12% that drop out of high school
I may have cut grass and wiped windows when I was younger
I may have lined up on the welfare lines
I may have lived in the projects
But now I am busy making Projects
No Senor, I will not be another number
I will not contribute to that 12^%
I will be part of that 1%
Yes, a Latino
Even better a Mexican!
Viva Mexico!
My name is Omar Morales, I'm a Graphic Design Major. . .
And Fun fact- I'm a First generation high school graduate and soon to be first generation college graduate!
