Imagine

Imagine lakes of dreams Blood contained streams Imagine oceans that behold undiscovered beings Imagine human life depended off of cheers and games Man design’s umbrellas And eventually would play a part in acid rain Imagine not wanting to smell another rose Or touch another soul Because of despair and shame Imagine in the mist of your demise You have the passion to rejoice and sing Imagine driving pass shattered glass The interior is soaked with blood stains Your mind can't comprehend the fact that it's a dead family in the next lane Imagine dreaming for freedom As a result by your neck you hang Imagine for the sake of progress You whip a man on his back and call him a slave. Rage, Pain, Fortune, and fame You don't have to imagine this Because that's what life brings.
