Lost is the mood that drives me today
Wherever I go it follows my way
This society depresses
Why am I so bad
Crisis in the world directs me to sad
Emotional blackmail for a world that is broke
Business ain't bad but I still can't be woke

Where are the elected in this generation of need
Happy for votes to sow their seed
No progress is made to end conflict and hate
Economics prevail despite all that is said

To end like this
Is not too smart
But I feel we are lost
Unless we start
Standing for truth
Not succumbing to fear
Challenging not accepting
Or
Living
Does
Not
Exist
