As We Stand Together as a Family
As We Stand Representing Humanity
As We Stand We still fight amongst ourselves
As We Stand Status is chosen by Wealth
And As We Stand We should be unified
Because as We Stand It's You and I
Brothers and Sister Created from the same DNA
Ancestors common, facts don't sway
In a way, you and I we are exactly the same.
Surviving in a society that doesn't know our name.
To some we are the world and others just a face.
In a planet full of millions we are forgotten without a trace.
As We Stand, lets hold hands and pray for the peace.
So As We Stand , our souls can meet.
Debate and determine fate for where our future lies.
Because As We Stand, we are nothing, when viewed from the Sky.

To Judge One's Worth, It starts with a trial of reflecting
The answers you accumulate may be far from what your expecting
Injecting truth, the very root of your dimension
All that was known is put on endless suspension.
To look deep inside, to your soul for reference
Life corrupts, it'll attempt to break your lesson
My test for you, is to walk away and see who attempts to stay.
Many claim that they will stand with you all throughout the rain,
But when the storm arrives their presence is slain.
To Judge One's Worth, one must look in their veins.
Is the blood that pumps heroic or is it plain
See in this world, we have it all to gain.
While some stand together, others are viewed as prey.
Those are the ones that wait, they hide in the trees.
And as you better yourself they arrive in a breeze.
They try and gain your trust, it may seem like a relief.
But to Judge One's worth it's the smartest just to leave.
As you judge your own, never lose your spirit.
That voice that speaks deep inside allow yourself to hear it.

This is for the people who need a prayer
This is for the people who continue to be scared
This is for those who have never had a vision.
This is for the ones barely maintaining a living.
When the self doubt rolls in, you need to be strong
Be quick to react, but don’t be alarmed.
The mind is powerful, it’s part of the charm.
But muscles mean nothing, if your brain does the harm.
It’ll start off as rain and increase to a storm.
If it reaches the heart, what won’t exist is the bliss.
Broken from inside, you’ll forget what confidence is.
If you can relate, don’t let this fate encompass
For the body is yours, the future is one to run with.
Mentally, the only enemy is your own
Feeling lost in the world, trying to find the way home.
To take control is the only path to freedom.
Generated by oneself only you could see them.
Create the meadows, the landscape around you.
Relinquish the darkness and success will surround you.
This is for the people who feel like they are alone
And as a voice for those people, we will make it home.

When you catch the different sides,
You might not realize the immediate difference.
Open up your eyes and ears or else you’ll probably miss it.
It’s inside of me, and you could try and see
The 5 degrees that separate the Jekyll and Hyde who speak.
One man he’s poet, the world loves it and are quick to show it.
The other man, he’s a rapper who barely gets any notice.
The focus is the content and the structure of the logic
Both men in their own way are trying to muster up some knowledge
College for the people in a way that can reach you.
Feed news , education and awareness of life and its evils.
Steal imagination, create a congregation, to face those who the world has misshapen.
Stationed in a single mind, find your audience and awaken
Take the ideas and preach to the attention that’s been raked in.
For both states, there’s a difference approach,
But the goals is to get you all on the same boat.
Without the water, it’ll refuse to float.
Jekyll and Hyde, well they’ve written their own notes
Slow and steady, they’ll come when ready, focused.
The Poet he’s very soft spoken and loving,
The Rapper we’ll hes chosen to start shoving,
Making his place because the road was never paved for him.
Engraved his name along the way, hated but he stays going.
Both men, they might meet in the long run, some would beg to differ
Will it be violence or will the heads combine quicker?
A wicker basket of ideas, fears,goals and cheers.
Where will the audiences meet and emerge the tears?
Hear this out, and to yourself I want you to decide.
Through this writing, talking to you is which side?
Has it been the poet, or is it that rapper?
Are you destined for success or has he lead you too disaster?
I guess, your future will depend on your answer.
How you align your mind, after considering the factors.
You strive to find yourself and the decision to capture.
Rapture awaits, or is it green pastures.
Jekyll...., Hyde,
Speaking now Poet or Rapper?

They can’t see it, all that we do.
Its because of that, they just start to assume.
Truly, we do more than they could ever believe.
However, its in a way that they refuse to perceive.
They’ve called our generation lazy, crazy is that thought.
But our reactions are adaptive so its hardly our fault.
Our generation, we didn’t create this mess.
We’re working on a way to clean up in order to aliveate our stress.
Think about it, we get criticized but what have we done.
As a majority, the problems around today were created when we were young.
Those in charge, are from the past generations.
Then they have the nerve to blame us for problems like inflation.
Accountability is a trait, that people refuse to embrace.
They hate how we act, as we try to survive when they created the place.
We live in a world, that our parents made , as theirs did before.
To hear there arguments against us is a reason to be sore.
We have more college graduates now, than ever in the past.
Grab that statement, and this is where we’ll get started.
They ask why we can’t find work after school, when they created the job market.
They outsource work, to save more in their pockets .
So now I will inform you, there’s power in knowledge.
We’re probably the smartest generation, because of what we’ve had to go through.
Technological advances, disease, war and the world changes so soon.
They can’t see it, yet they say our generation is doomed.
But why do they get to lay claim on the demise of our platoon ?
Truth, it’s because their generation has created the lies, take the lesson.
When we call out government policy, they call us crazy just to mention.
but isn’t it hypocritical, when we were raised to always ask questions?
And the answers, well they won’t give us a minute or even an hour
So they hide the truth, so they can maintain power.
That generation, they don’t like our ideas.
So we’re continued to be oppressed, so they can’t confront their fears.
Stubbornness because they just don’t understand.
If one can’t evolve with time, it’ll be the extinction of man.
They always say, back when, the times were a lot more grand.
But it seems they grew up, without even thinking of a plan.
This plan, is one for the future, food for the thought,
Because this hell that’s been manifested, is where we’ve been brought.
Things were better then or so you claim,
For your parents were smart and they paved the way.
Us, we’re a new generation of minds,
We’ve moved forward, in hopes to leave you behind on the times.
A revolution is coming, and I say that proudly
At they end of the day, make sure you don’t start it without me.
All we want, is a chance to yet again make the pastures green.
If history repeats, like the wind blows on trees,
Its just going to be another thing
They Can’t See.

They bleed, The walls, They do.
Bleeding from the memories of all those who have walked through.
Where they've been, What they saw
Did they indeed also, see the blood on the wall?
As they stand, residing in these halls .
The Walls, they've seen it all .
Holding the past, and will soon the future
Inscribing each moment, the stories would move you.
If they could speak, imagine what they'd tell
From joyous occasions, to the days kingdoms fell
Sadness, celebrations, secrets never told;
If only you knew, the vaults these walls hold
So when you walk past, just understand, they remember
Every step; every voice; every word spoken;
History's hidden moments, these walls have soaked in .
