Hope

I’ve been gone for a while, I’ve been locked in my room. With the joy in my life, I’ve been avoiding the gloom. When the worlds not changing but everything is changed, It makes me step-back and realize just how strange.. ..Strange it is today to know that when life is good it’s bad ‘Cause even at you happiest, the world is still sad. So I break into my mind to try and share some sun Let love be what is found next time we see a smoking gun. I have two children and I’m truly scared for them For what was once a fruitful tree, we’ve been left with a mere stem. They have taken all the profits from the blisters on our feet They sit behind their walls while we’re mixing the concrete. We can try to unite as they tear us apart We need less of our muscle and more of our heart. everything is relative, and its hard to relate When every word that’s said is met with a debate. So I’m back to free my mind again, spread some positivity, because it might make a better future for my kids to see, not me.
