Never Took the Time
Sadly what you think you see,
Is based off the opinions of the world's decrees,
If you search from the outside and not from within,
If you don't erase the biased opinions before you begin,
The idea of the outside settles and starts to paint the picture,
And if you never wiped away the thought the heart will go back and remember,
And add to the idea of what you think you see,
Because you listened to everyone else instead of just looking at me,
Because at the end of the day everyone has everything based on an opinion,
When a majority of the time they are completely wrong because they never took the time to look inward.
