Math Class Blues

My gaze sees complexity invisible to all
The words are formulating on the wall
Sanity is not always the best solution
It’s just that some people can’t get the resolution
And my bones are weary from the ride
My position’s the same even though it’s been tried
But perseverance is the sanctuary to the light
And faith can’t make or break you if you don’t know what’s right
Why can’t humanity understand all we demand
Why’s there a point to prove or a law to defend
I’m trying to figure out all that my brain contains
And if I’m criticized or ridiculed, I hope to cope with all the pain

I must be helping
I’ve got to be giving
Humbleness and complete trust
Are the rules by which I’m living
But I need something else
Besides just myself
And compassion better no just be a fucking word
