Society
A heart is not a heart
 without a beat
 A loss is not a loss
 without a defeat
 We have no air
 without a breath
 We do not end 
 without a death
 
 But some question
 the forces of nature
 The blame our mother Earth
 and hate her
 Without all these grievances
 what is this being
 Is it an illusion
 or just misleading
 
 Have we not forgot
 what brought us here
 Do we not listen
 with our own ears
 Or do we trust 
 what other’s say
 Act as if it’s true
 and continue on with our day
 
 Have we decided
 to just go with the flow
 And believe things
 that we do not know
 Is it all true
 what we hear from other’s minds
 Relying on the truthfulness
 of mankind
 
 What happened to the need
 of knowing what’s right
 Our minds have just become dark
 like a pitch black night
 We are becoming misled
 and deceived
 from the pressures of people
 and society
 
 What has brought this
 what is not the best
 Just opinionist, pessimists
 and societist
 What happened to us 
 needing a lil’ certainty
 Now we don’t care
 how things we really supposed to be
 
 What has to be done
 needs to be said
 not unspoken words
 just locked in your head
 just close your eyes
 we’ll be alright
 hold my hand
 hold it tight
 
 We’ll all get through this
 one way or another
 respect our family
 respect our mothers
 strive for the truth
 not believe the lies
 those obvious
 and one’s in disguise
 
 Make the day yours
 as I will make it mine
 and when we do
 everything will become fine
 Say everything
 on the tip of your tongue
 fix the problems in our life
 while we’re young
 
 Set our goals
 believe in your dreams
 we have to hold this world together
 by it’s seams
 Times passing by fast
 and it’s winning
 But great time
 is on it’s way to balancing
 
 Don’t wait for it
 make it come to you
 We just have to relax
 yeah, that’s what we have to do.
