The quest to find the truth
Will lead most down a dangerous path.
To find the answers we'll need to sleuth.
With the truth comes the wrath.
Questions are what we should be asking.
To further our knowledge and our wisdom.
For the snake of deception is lying in wait, basking
Ready to strike, fast and hard like a drum.
To take our sight from us
To make us believe in a lie
Turning one against another was a plus
Our trust in them will lead us to die.
The world, spinning on its axis, or is it?
Taught a world view since birth.
Our earth is round, this is indefinite.
But is it really? What is the truth worth?
It seems we all have been tricked
Pawns in a game between good and bad.
Until our old habits can be kicked.
We will not be able to escape feeling sad.
For our planet is not what it seems.
And we are killing it faster than ever.
Polluting our air, our earth, our streams.
With these actions, it's our connection we sever.
To our home, this planet we all share.
All life is precious, this earth is alive.
We all need to love one another, to show we care.
A better world for all, is what we should strive.
For we are all more important than we know.
Our purpose on this planet is divine.
We are here to love eachother, not just for show.
But we've trapped ourselves in a circle when it's really a line.
So break the norm and just shine!
