It's Time To Wage a War
We build the castles we destroy,
We pave the road to our destruction;
All so clear to all,
But all live under the giuse of ignorance,
'Cause to accept all this,
Would mean a hurt to our ego,
A stain on the face of our built-up humanity.
Lies,deception,jealousy,hatred-
Making way for more of these.
True humanity smudged and hidden,
By the the hands that should nurture it.
Waging wars against fellow brothers and sisters,
Fighting to own the land that isn't anyone's to own,
It all seems so stupid to my silly eyes.
Ready to sacrifice self,
To fulfill someone's selfish needs and beliefs;
I don't see the point,
Why bring more shame,
When shame we live in;
Why push our children,
Into the same worthless lives as ours?
For once , let us wage a war,
A war against wars,
A war aganist evil,
A war for unity,
For maimed humanity.
