I've listened to pioneers
I've talked to delinquents
Heard of rumors
Learned of facts
Theories of the curious
Laws of the illustrious
Everything is the same
And it's the same in every "right".

As long as we continue to abide
To break and to rule and oblige
Always on queue as we search for clues
We always do, but settle our dues
To live and to be exterminated
To be downtrodden, to be accepted
We live a virtuous yet infectious life
But not all are asleep-laid to rest every night.

Some give birth as the reaper does its work
Love forever blooms as cults of hate still lurk
Religious gospels countered by the sacrilegious
Funny how both sides argue on identical mediums
One nation, one race, yet we cancel each and erase
Its the start of the end,
but what does life has to say?
We all are on a constant search for meaning, but never asked the meaning itself.

I had some morals
Strong ones if I must say

But this past month or so
I've thrown them all away

I have some regrets
I don't feel great

But the worst part is
It's him to doesn't appreciate

I'm disappointed
Didn't see this coming

But gotta keep going on with life
Simply just humming
this was inspired from a book I read a few days ago. it reminded me I had to do what I believe in, instead of being influenced by others

Loving this life
Didn’t choose it, feels random
Picked a different path last week
Right or wrong?
Going to deal with trouble and strife
Trying to get the correct arithmetic sum
That will add up. Will it make me feel weak
Or Strong?
Choices can be a chance or planned
But always leads to a spider web of sticky roads
An adventure of possible endings
Good or bad?
Striding through life’s shifting sand
You can’t head straight as a flight of crows
The journey is the beginning of wonderful chosen things
Choices made?

It's not about
Right or wrong
It's about knowing
Where you belong

"Belong is a strange word
Why should I belong anywhere
In fact I don't want to
Belong anywhere

I want myself
And it belongs to me"
