A new force begins in this century
With ancient notions of greed and scarcity
It pushes us hard
It hits our home
But last time i checked
We aren't alone
In fact we are more than enough
Community is key when the times are tough
And in numbers we hold still
We hold steady
We hold true
We are ready
And as we stand, shaken, surrounded, subdued and silent
Still we stand strong, together and without violence
And it all starts there
It all starts when we start to care
By separating past and present
By stimulating body and mind
By speaking out when something's left unspoken
We can find solace in these soul-less times
Within moments we are undefeated
In these moments we are truly divine
So exhaust yourself
Brake yourself
Challenge yourself
Remake yourself
And if you still don't understand the truth to the questions
And you still have to ask a selfish and backhanded 'WHY?'
Then fine
Lets find
Lets define some final answers to the demons in your mind
Have you considered that perhaps together if we share them
Lay it all out and bare them
That half the fear of it all
Might just simply unwind?
No way you say?
Well what if i told you
That the vessel that holds 'it' all in
Your pain
Your struggle
Your self proclaimed entitlement to 'sin'
Those things that you thought was just yours to fight alone at home without having ever known you aren't the only one that fights it on your own....
Your disdain for the insane frame that entraps your brain that leaves us crippled and maimed through what feels like the end of days.....
What if i told you
That your own shell is the only thing
That's truly stopping real change from happening?
That the struggle from within each of our minds defines the rest of time well at least the rest for all of mankind?
You.
Me.
We.
Everybody.
We must reach through it.
Cause if we don't, who in hells name is going to pursue it?
