stuck in a certain mindset of doubt
stuck with people who can't be kind
the gum on the street is keeping my shoes immobile
holding me captive to watch corruption embody everyone i love
I was never meant to sit back and watch
good is deteriorating like an organism undergoes senescence
we humans are nomads
moving from heart to mind
moving from person to person
moving like atoms in a gaseous state
Too many of us are power hungry barbarians
with rotting souls and cynical minds
trust is a luxury most can't afford
and love is a practical joke
where has humanity gone?
i'm not going to adapt to my environment
become subordinate to an unfeeling unscrupulous society
i'm done with being spoon fed these lies
WAKE UP
we're the same, you and me
don't forget that
yes, we chew up and spit each other out
forgetting that everyone has emotions
but that's how the gum ended up on the street in the first place
don't forget that
This is so good. So cool. So true. Yes.
