Individualistic

Not who you was but whom is portrayed We all with evil, pulpits shouts redemption rise Every is entitled to redeem heart of the soul Upon themselves the desire to want change Among mist of our depths lays stories, secrets Darkness evil hidden away torcher's pain Taught morals, respect, one looks for in another The kindness of being promoting good will What is it we are except what we allow That we have become radical civilization of hate War falls upon the lips, riots destroy instead unite Purpose of government not meant to control But overseer of different law of land we bury For our own good, forsaken all we stand While hiding behind image of world our steps All desiring riches, the promised way to life But you can not find purpose with close eyes Among starry skies, dreams of reality hopes We fly flags, liberation to freedom rights Each fighting against another even ourselves We call for change just defile objective to be Like selling your soul, price we give to breath But does one die in vain their doing Where does the soul go that live this breathe But he be a better man than the world his journey
