I ponder with wonder on life
Why is there so much strife
Painful like being stabbed with a knife
I try to comprehend
so lend me your ear
if you choose to hear
We only evaluate our own surrounding its astounding
How we ignore
What's behind the door

Theres only one way to change how things are its within our range we don't have to reach for a star
When you choose to see what's clear
lend me your ear
Help those in need
by doing so you plant a seed
Heed my word
Let it soar like a bird
Look around
Listen to the sound
Of people sleeping on the ground
Help others
You get back what you give
That's how you should live
The universe is calling you
What will you do

no rules allowed and chaos ensues
alcoholics start hitting up the *****
teens start trying on Holocaust shoes
men in black suits keep signing off on paper
no regard for woman no they just **** her
people once in power now cry in the shower
but at least they can't feel the fear on the streets today
people still fearing to be gay
people still fearing to say hey
no way
tired black suits just sign away

what can't come out on canvas
comes out of my wrist
strokes of black and streaks of red
help control my silent fits
I pound the wall with my fist
blood trickles from my hips
but it's ok
I'm used to this

I blend paint with pain
brush with blade
only difference is,
pain fades paint stays
