Freedoms Drink
Power exceeds nothing but the man
Taste of success achievement brings desires want
What feeds soul it's hunger thirst
For survival, worldly possession does not bring life
A mere illusion of hopes happiness
Only when man is himself you find truth
When one is kind, they find heart
Anger, drama's stress to cope realities beatings
A emotional state much like love
Power of ego feed by influence mind
What is one's quality if not fought in belief
Where one stand if ripped his dignity
Except beneath the feet they beg to be
Is color hatred as it is us ourselves
Unpurified nature of mankind since dawn time
Is one better than another except he be different
Same breath we bleed to rectify our actions
Our journey similar; with different steps
Are we running just accept things are
Given up concept to existence we fall
Freedoms drink, our thirst isn't oneself
But soul which gives us life we breathe
Wealth, appreciating your blessings, could be worse
