Once upon a time
A day where people talked to each other
Where people used their voice
A day where people spent time outside
Where people enjoyed nature
A day where there were trees
Where animals lived amongst other animals

Now
Now people text
Now people stay quiet
Now people stay cooped up inside
Now people hate outside
Now people slaughter forests
Now people don’t see animals

Once upon a time
A day where people cared what you had to say
Where they would listen
A day where people loved
Where they had feelings
A day where people made noise
Where they played, laughed, talked

Now
Now people hate
Now people ignore
Now people hate
Now people ignore
Now people hate
Now people ignore

Once upon a time
A day where people hate what they didn’t understand
Where they killed the new
A day where killings happened
Where millions died
A day where kids were abused
Where kids were worked in bad conditions

Now
Now people understand
Now people take in the new
Now people save others
Now people are born
Now people taken care of kids
Now people have better conditions

Once upon a time
A day where little was know
Where people killed themselves accidentally
A day where threats could come true
Where dreams couldn’t
A day where people broke
Where people destroyed the unknown

Now
Now people know
Now people know the dangers
Now people stop threats
Now people follow through the dreams
Now people fix
Now people explore

Once upon a time
A day where the water was clean
Where pollution wasn’t a problem
A day where most we’re happy
Where depression was unknown
A day where there was love for everyone
Where everyone had a someone

I will be black not blue

I will be filled with trash

I will be burnt and layers of ashes

Who are we
We are the sky you ****
The oceans that you ****
And the plants that you ****
And we’re not happy
And so we beg and beg you
Please save us before it’s too late
Please save us before we die
In silence

They call you stupid
They call you annoying
They call you fat
They call you ugly
They call you gay
They call you “girly”
They call you names

But you out on a fake smile and “laugh” it off
But little do they know
Those words are in you
Like a bruise  
Like a scar
Like cut

It may look healed
But it still hurts

Growing up hurts
Growing up is painful

Growing up heals
Growing up is lively

Growing up is hard
Growing up is fearful

Growing up is easy
Growing up is fun

You just have to grow up and endure
The ups and downs

What’s the point to life
Why are we here
What’s our purpose
Will we ever know

For now we just need to stay alive and find out

Why are we here
Why are we alive
Why are we existing

For now we just need to stay alive and find out

I miss you more than a dog loves it’s bone
I miss you so much you could hear my heart go *** ***, *** ***
I love you so much that when you left
My heart broke

Everytime you played the guitar
The flowers danced
It’s a shame
I didn’t get a chance
To say goodbye

I hope to see you again
