Fact Not Fiction

7/12/17 Fact not fiction Another rap from scratch, I've written Flaws in every system And organism Constant competition And schisms People passionate about religion Or looking at it with skepticism Folks with belief in superstition And others regarding it with suspicion So much criticism And contradiction Lifeforms that have or haven't participated in cannibalism Whether it was optimal or severe weather and living conditions It went with or against tradition Found out or kept hidden Work in progress, no matter if it's building or demolition Messages that arrived and didn't With or without a messenger pigeon Was it truly an accurate depiction? Or just someone's opinion? Near or far from land and where bodies of water glisten You'd better listen Pay attention and if you can, use your vision Only so much time is given So you better stay driven Slowly but surely I have risen With more ambition I'm trying to keep the rhythm Using better lyricism While remaining winsome As I pursue the expedition Speaking the truth and seeking wisdom I worked with many different items, including gypsum Underneath skies that were blue, grey or crimson
