I Spit Truth

The totality Of our reality Rests on a loss of morality More and more I see the shame Every partner points the blame Accountability leaves the brain While innocent youth are going insane Who will put a stop to this endless war? Our family unit needs to be restored Who will stand up and say it’s enough The counterfeit lie that they have to be tough Searching for love in all the wrong places Can’t fill that void with different faces Selfish pursuits and hopeless endeavors Ultimately leaves ones soul lost in forever The vanity… is insanity Its society’s physical profanity When will our hearts melt once more? When will we love what we were made for? We swore we wouldn’t repeat our parent’s mistakes And now our neighborhoods are filled with a bunch of Fakes Snakes That make big mistakes Not man enough, to own up, get healed and be right Obsessions have taken over righteous appetites The quick-fix seems to be the common way If we humbled ourselves and repentantly prayed The voids would subside We would not have to hide And Gods light would transform Every self-inflicted storm.
