Look Around You

Look around you The world is already at an end When the Mayans said that the world was going to end They didn't mean a world destroyed by flare, quake, or salvation But rather a world full of broken relation That possibly, it wasn't a literal interpretation But a figurative analysis of this falling nation Are we not all the same people, the same human But we'd rather live a life divided A life divided by the color of our skin What is war but greed to keep the amount of money left for our kin Life is no longer cherished The earth used for our own experiments until its resources perished Genocide, assassinations, and murder supported for a "better cause" Who are we to judge the abominations of others when there is flaw in our own laws We continue to redefine what is socially accepted Making a gateway for divorce, abortion, and legal prostitution Rather than fixing what has been so psychologically rooted into the minds of this generation We look to cover up past mistakes with a newly corrupted translation Girls look for sex because of a lack of love from their fathers Society tells boys to make use of this advantage Treat girls as objects rather than human beings with emotions And we later ask ourselves How did these boys and girls ever become such bad parents Our government shouts democracy But isn't that really just a cover up to keep us appeased It's most convenient when the majority stays quiet Because only those in power can say that this earth's a heaven To the majority, this earth is already a hell The human race is so arrogant Believing that they are the most superior in this world That they can live without the mercy of God who should be in control Look around you The world is already at an end
