Latent Energy Within

A latent state of energy Combined with spirituality Combined can set us existentially free From this twisted deluded false reality Where hate and envy rules supreme And racist, xenophobic, jealousy are held up as piously As the glorious genocidal warmongering regimes A state where heroic acts are enacted through slaughter Into the valley of death they rode To kill or to die Let's celebrate this and ignore that it defines Man's inhumanity to its fellow man. Deep within we must find this latent energy To make a stand To break free from this state To find a new one of peace, love and grace Where we ride into valleys only to help and save We need to find a better place Where being heroic is an act of kindness An act of love and stopping the hatred A new state of tolerance and sharing Of coming together uniting and caring There is a latent energy spiritual state within us all To create our earth as this place But we need to find it and educate Everyone to help them find this same place And to leave genocide, destruction and intolerance behind See the light and stop being blind The blindness that's caused by anger and hate Caused by a negative, ignorant state Show people living in an existentialist way Is better than surrendering your life to a state That wants to slave or throw your life away To a system that's twisted and flawed and is now in decay.
