As we jirate to the melodies of truth and deceit Every minute of our days we choose who we are going to be Its no secret what we think Whats wrong or right Or anywhere in-between, our actions confirm our binaries And show our true beliefs Through action, what we can see For if you really care you’d put your neck out there Otherwise you pretend not to care For silence is conformation That you not only understand the world But approve of it “it doesn’t affect me, so who am I to say how it should be?” Is a cop out to avoid responsibility For once you know you have the power to change But we’re so comfortable nowadays we don’t engage With the politics Each other Controversy Unless it’s at the **** of a joke Or said in conversations with friends who will forget of what we spoke Its sad to know that people will suffer much more of our inaction Than actual ignorance Because our voices are significant But we’re been soothed into complacency Not necessarily lazy, but the fellow man or women doesn’t mean a thing Unless of course it directly affects us And really the amount of people who genuinely care for other human beings Are seen as naïve or some special kind of being Either way they’re seen as a kind of minority But all I’ve ended up doing is preach For you already know Out that other ear like so many times before But let me hope that a fraction of it sticks And you leave this world having actually applied your influence That you leave this room and don’t forget or disregard That the struggle of any human is the struggle of us all That you don’t just leave having had meaningful conversations But that you actually try to solve what we’ve been ignoring for so long
