I Am
I've been there, that road
which leads us all in a direction
we don't want to go.
We all hear it,
feel it,
taste it,
judge it,
and learn from it.
Anger,
pain,
happiness,
sadness
And yet we still thrive
on the things we are not meant for
I am one person,
but yet it doesn’t stop
anyone from doing harm
They don’t realize
that one person can’t take any more
No more pain,
no more agony
Don’t tell me to do this or that
I remember the things you tell me
and things you make me do
Then is then
and now is now
I am one
And I am
