Nations building walls vs humans building metaphorical walls
I am an artist trapped within a shell
No matter where I am
It’s never where I want to be
I place myself within my walls
A secret place, where I can’t even find myself
No Peace
Introspection, investigation
Always looking for an answer
Why, why, why
Building walls, la mode
Separation creating more and more frustration
Momentary satisfaction
Causing years of alienation
I see myself as a symbol
Breaking down the walls together
The majority overwhelm the minority,
Who dictates our opinions?
Logic should outweigh the commotion
It’s just too hard to see past the cruelties
Each individual’s story
We have all suffered greatly
No matter the perspective
But we only see ourselves as only individuals
Look at our suffering as a whole
Why, why, why
Can a few bad seeds sour us all?
