Piano music all through the air,
Like a cool summer breeze from the ocean shore.
In front of your eyes is a girl,
She dances gracefully and silently.
Joining in,
You grab her hand.
Dancing through,
The feeling is unimaginable.
You feel like you're flying with her,
Soaring through the sky.
She leaves you speechless.
Like magician she vanishes in thin air.
In your heart,
You're secretly begging for more.

Mama it's time for the fair
Mama why can't we go
Someone opened fire on innocents
And about it they weren't slow

Mama it's time for the concert
Mama why are you so afraid
There's risk just listening to music
Grimmie was shot on her own stage

Mama why's that good cop dead
He can't come back to his daughter
Now I'll never know my cousin
And that's another who's lost a father

Mama what's with the wealthy
They seem to have all the life hacks
They are people out there starving
And the rich barely pay tax

Mama look that man's gay
Hey that other one is black
People don't hesitate with violence
But it is love that they hold back

Mama I wanna learn history
I wanna know what people did before
Mama why is there so much blood
Why did people start so many wars

Mama will things ever change
Is there anything peaceful in store
There's a lot that is still the same
If anything people fight more

Mama why do these things happen
Mama why do so many people die
Mama why are people so cruel
It's enough to make me cry

Mama will we be ok
Are there enough of us to stand tall
People now fight fire with fire
And I fear it'll destroy us all

Mama why are people mad at God
They blame Him for human's sting
They ask why His own creations act this way
He probably wonders the same thing

Mama why can't we show compassion
Mama why are we in this state
Mama why can't we love
Mama why do we hate

And if I go down in flames, let me go down in a freedom reflecting upon your laws a ferocious flower, staining the moment that you gave birth to hypocrisy!

"We" are aging.
"We" are slowly losing everything
That we hold dear to us.
"We" love people who "We" cannot reach.
"We" make the wrong choices,
But "We" don't stop taking
The wrong path.
Sooner or later "We" will regret the
choices "We" made.
"We" never pay attention to what's really important.
"We" will soon pay the price of the debt "We"
Need to repay.

Born into life,
I automatically become a soldier.
I'm foreced to fight both everyone including myself.
No one wanted join this fight,
But we must continue what we started.
Although it means going to hell,
We still fight in wars when all it could take
Is a peaceful treaty to untie the whole world.

When the entire world is safe
normative in all its realms
immersion blinds those within
to realities that are hazardous
when speech is weaponized
blunt to the bearer of the words
a mere game to win or lose
losers must be found to play.

This imbalance hides from sight
for those in power’s seat
they care to maintain a place
with conservative as their motif
when dialogue flows one way
fears are not the same
it’s about power sought for self
endangering those on the fringe.

The slight becomes ego’s wound
asking for harsh recourse
dogma states all the rules
tenets prodding actions on
the hydra with a thousand heads
the crowd is the bully’s friend
sent to suppress a minority
unable to resist in the same.

War becomes their sole career
gains are notches on the belt
blood is the satisfaction
taken on the edge of talk
when the entire world is safe
except for the victims sought
immersion blinds those within
to the crimes they celebrate.

An enteral melody,
Putting many to sleep.
Those who hear it never wake up.
A melody so lovely,
It will put all your stress to rest.
The melody is so beautiful,
most people rush to hear it.
It can be heard anywhere, anytime, no matter
what your statuse in life.
A melody so graceful,
It puts you to an enteral sleep.

i ruined it again
and it's worse
because this time
it really is about me.
