Who Are We

Are we gods and ancestors? Are we giants and heroes With heart made of stone Oh life, tell us Are we the products of self absorption? From the reactants of hatred and greed In the presence catalyst of ignorance Oh life, define us Are we inhuman with our shameful eyes? That seeks darkness And chase smoke Oh life, forgive us Are we pain to the world? With our faded life Forged identities Oh life, fill us
