Society's People
People of today's society, what is it man or woman
That behind the hidden screen of a picture
Is it that of a falsehood or being
Is it that of something real or negative feeding on you
What is it in society today that we are who we are
That we are such destruction, deceiving, little conniving
I say, what is it that we are except we make ourselves
But who we are is what God would like us to be
Is it there in depths of darkness soul emerges
A light be it not true its worthiness to breathe
To live and conquer all that I am in me
What is it you prey upon my wellness even in death
Your deceitfulness even to friend as yourself
Forgiveness you ask as thou stab me deeply
My emotions played like a game you can not win
Love, just a word text, abuse and used
Are our dreams washed like yesterday's rain
Our hopes pass like cloud we lay it on
Staring into Heaven's Gate prey for healing heart
Desires of human flesh devouring our depths
Society's People, real or fake
Who do we say we are!
