[00:04.64] |
Dear everyone, we are a broken people |
[00:07.22] |
But, it's okay, at least we have each other |
[00:09.19] |
And all I ask is that we can love one another |
[00:12.28] |
In a society of social adaptation to no end |
[00:16.48] |
We can't pretend to fall silent in this bend |
[00:19.51] |
Enduring injustice and lack of substance, reduced to redundancy |
[00:24.01] |
Repetition, regurgitating serpents to the church of Christ |
[00:28.00] |
Now, the church of judgement |
[00:29.83] |
Amid the beautiful devastation |
[00:32.00] |
The reusable meditation to calm the nerves of witnesses |
[00:36.15] |
to a crime of passion |
[00:37.97] |
A crime of madness |
[00:39.40] |
A crime of catastrophic proportions extended across seas |
[00:43.35] |
Reaching into the hearts of children |
[00:45.05] |
Grabbing into their vital organs |
[00:47.33] |
Until their blood pumps differently |
[00:49.44] |
Now inept to the silence |
[00:50.96] |
Rather than the equality |
[00:53.42] |
|
[00:54.12] |
We've been indoctrinate to believe that |
[00:56.09] |
it is better to die for our beliefs rather than live in vain |
[00:59.74] |
And this is a belief that I breathe in, every single day |
[01:03.88] |
Not letting a single moment go to waste |
[01:06.83] |
But we find fault in our grief, |
[01:08.87] |
and we let political biases enter a spiritual realm, |
[01:12.56] |
and change the pace of our breath |
[01:14.63] |
Until anxiety has consumed the depth of our mess, |
[01:17.96] |
that is our bleeding head |
[01:19.58] |
Breaking our necks and changing the landscape of the human brain |
[01:23.52] |
To conform to lessons we prescribe to those |
[01:26.25] |
we thought were not living life in a way we wanted to see astride |
[01:30.95] |
So we created a diatribe, |
[01:33.22] |
a sickening language of dialect to change the meaning of brokenness |
[01:37.28] |
So we can say we are changed |
[01:39.05] |
Even thought the linguistics were simply just rearranged |
[01:42.59] |
And brought back to a point of comfort |
[01:44.96] |
Through a time of stress |
[01:47.39] |
And we talk to each other fairly straight |
[01:50.02] |
But at a scary rate, |
[01:52.05] |
we escalate our fate to the point of that very break |
[01:55.49] |
And then in times of comfort we barely relate |
[01:58.32] |
Just a merry state of intellect fleeting down a warred drain |
[02:02.22] |
But it always leaves dark stains in the sink |
[02:04.85] |
holding society to the brink of rioting |
[02:07.88] |
The extinct act of trying, and that's why I'm writing |
[02:12.33] |
I want the ink of my pen to stain the hands and hearts of many |
[02:15.41] |
In the name of love |
[02:16.89] |
In the name of peace |
[02:18.15] |
In the name of grace |
[02:19.68] |
Don't shy away I don't write to expose shame, or pass blame |
[02:23.87] |
But rather to make it known that we are all the same |
[02:27.00] |
In need of love |
[02:28.17] |
And in need of embrace |
[02:30.49] |
So let's make this change, and find a way to relate |
[02:33.68] |
In a way of love |
[02:35.49] |
Not hate |
