Authors Own Story
Someone writes the words I say
Their disconnected meaning washes the victims away
History is a teacher if we remember past today
Solve the world's issues all the pieces are here
Weakness is needed to balance agendas of fear
How many do we save the tipping point isn’t clear
Praise paid to the strength to persevere
Extinction is humanities choice resources conserve
Decided by the mighty if they feel you deserve
Work hard to provide for the ones we miss the most
Force yourself out of the home parents are a ghost
Building blocks the needy starve as the greedy feast and share a toast
Build towards the prosperity of all future
dead
More time spent alone than with loved ones instead
Truth is a memory kept in secret and never said
Find your voice in what was written
Believe your strength to sing out loud life-permitting
Record your story to be discovered losing is quitting
Go quietly nowhere show love to yourself the only one that cares
Endless introspection wears thing my tolerance for those that stare
Each life matters environmental factors unequal playground we compare
Water will never wash away the hate brought branded to the core
History written by victories is how greed keeps score
Pave our future with the bones of the past it doesn’t matter anymore
