State of Mind 2 (DRAFT)

by pagez

Sliding off into the emotional ditches This time clouded with anger I thought it doesn't matter So why even bother? Cos its never gonna change I blow up and I don't know why This ill temper I have in me is making me sad But I can fight through this burned and bruised Until the pieces of my heart know peace Cos pain is the drug I always abuse This universe seems so cruel and unjust Children crying out for justice The innocent yelling and sobbing for mercy Yet the powerful still deny them their freedom Where is our sense of humanity? I hate this world not humanity Tell me the deeper meaning of human existence Show me the love which was a unifying spirit Love which was once the common spiritual denominator Now a word with much time for individual sentiments Po-li-tricks is the game now People in politics without principle Enjoying the pleasures without conscience They can't stop you from breathing But they can stop you from thinking A part of us may be gone But the humanity in us should hold on Let's walk up the earth Opening our eyes to humanity
