Internalise, Questionalise

Internalise, questionalise
Interrogate ourselves
To justify some others belief in hell?

Seek into the deep
Explore past the bolt closed gates
See yourself and weep

Justify or clarify?
Be one with what you are?
Apologise to no man's eyes
Because they are just like you, or worse than you for being what they are

We steel ourselves to hide ourselves
From facing the realities of what we are
We pretend so many different things
So we don't have to look that far

We smile when we should cry
We laugh when we should scream

The force of nature is there for all
The force created by mankind is selective
Not for all

Such technology, such famine
Such life, such evil

Men and women, child or children | money, greed, money, greed, money, greed!

In the end - who wins?
