Forsaken Lands
1/5/21
Time I make a stand
And take command
Across forsaken lands
I've been able to create a plan
Much greater than
Anything before, knowing that Mother Nature can
Throw a wrench into any minor or major plan
Never watched another suffer, I stepped in and gave a hand
Even though very little of the population had
Ever tried to help a lady in distress or to save a man
Because they just never gave a damn
Continuing to age well or due to the lifestyle, starting to age bad
People that remained happy and others that stayed sad
Some were always full of rage and mad
Very little or a lot of rainy days
In the sky a faint haze
Another unsolved and unexplained case
They often say this world works in strange ways
Turning out good or poorly and needing to say "Mayday"
Got it done with my mind and brainwaves
Stay against it or make way
Think I care, but I don't feel the same way
There'll be change made
On either side of the gateway
I would like to get a gold A.K.
I don't want to partake in the same thang
Time I change lanes
Instead of remaining in the same phase
During such strange days
