A Combat Veterans Mind (Got to Know)

The lust of the eye can take you far, but is it the path you need to go?

 

Moving down the river of adventure flow, doing things alone none

 

would ever know, is this the path to my greatest show, smoothly

 

gliding on a cloud of hope; hope hope hope, a four letter word with so

 

much meaning to change a nation, facing a crises of disloyalty running

 

through the veins of a injustice system, We call "the government,"

 

teaching us less an less about love, an more about greed blinding us to see our true paths..

 

Love; what is that? Taken from homes before you where even known,

 

teaching us Hate, grinding on hate, searching for faith, an some then

 

else to grasp to, gasping for air, it's clear the corruption will see you

 

through the darkness in your darkest hour, who do you call on God, it's

 

clear he's here, but are you thinking in the clear living in a nation built mainly on fear!
