A TROULBED WORLD
SHE STANDS AMONG THE RUINS, SHATTERED. TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THE CARNAGE WASHED UPON THE TIDES HOW CAN THE WORLD NOT SEE THE DEATH AND DESTRUCTION SOCIETY HIDES
POVERTY ABUSE RAPE MURDER RAGE PEOPLE LOCKED INSIDE AN OPEN CAGE
UNABLE TO FEEL DREAM OR HOPE TRYING TO FINISH EACH DAY, TO COPE
WITH SELF DISGUST AND MISERY UNABLE TO FIND A SINGLE BEAUTY
SEEKING TO BE BETTER, MORE KILLING DYING FOR A FOLKLORE
ALL IN THE NAME OF SELF AND INDIVIDUALITY AS EACH ONE STRIVES FOR FAME, WEALTH, IMMORTALITY
BUT WHO IS IT THAT PAYS THE PRICE, THE TOLL WHO ARE THE ONES THAT LOSE THEIR SOUL
EACH HAS TO GIVE BACK WHAT THEY RECEIVE YET MANY LET THE RICHES DECEIVE
BELIEVING THEY ARE ABOVE MORTAL BOUNDS THAT THE BALANCES NO LONGER HOLD GROUNDS
THINKING THAT WHAT THEY POSSESS MAKE THEM BETTER, ONE OF THE BEST
FORGETTING THE FOUNDATION OF UNITY IS THAT THE RIGHTS OF ONE, OF ME ME ME ARE LESS IMPORTANT THAN HE SHE WE
ONE FOR ALL ALL FOR ONE FATHER MOTHER DAUGHTER SON
THIS IS WHERE ETERNITIES LIE NOT IN THE CARDS OR THE SKY
WE PASS ON TO OUR OWN A WORLD IN A GLASS WE CREATE THE FUTURE THE PRESENT THE PAST
ALLOW THE GENERATIONS TO SEE NATURAL WEALTH AND BEAUTY
TEACH THE CHILDREN TO SING AND PRAY RETURN TO THEM HOPE FOR A BETTER DAY
SHE STANDS AMONG THE RUINS SHATTERED TRYING TO UNDERSTAND.....
