Eye For An Eye
3/3/17
Do you believe in an eye for an eye?
Better use your mind
With determination and effort applied
It's in your best interest to try
Because time flies
Opportunities drawing nigh, just may pass you by
Involving wins, losses and ties
In the end what you happened to find
Could've led to suprise
And speculation towards opposing sides
Respect to animals and human kind
We all get caught in a bind
And occasionally need to unwind
While aiming to thrive
As we survive
Along for the ride
Worldwide
Pushing through the daily grind
We all take dives
So continue to rise
And climb
Ever so high
Above terrain waterlogged or bone dry
Day and night
Appreciate life
Before after and during quite the plight
Some just want to pry
And spy
Living one big lie
Does no good to deny
Regardless of if you think you're being sly
Remains covered up with lye
Instead of lime
From here to way beyond Shanghai
Animals, sattelites and spacecrafts fly among the sky
