Obedience

Journey mankind walks similar steps they breath 
among their own soul a conviction to dignity 
Priority of being as if there was purpose with 
resolution to life intended be their destiny 
An obedience to standard of representation we're 
lead to believe in God of good 
Where we find kindness, love abound emotions, 
you can't kill it; through hate we love again 
Intensions, to progress in all that we can be 

Those who hate love's something they desire, 
though evil rules consequences of their actions 
Cause we fail to perfect beauty of opportunity,
if we can't be true than to whom we follow 
Our instincts abandon birth survival for society, 
falling wave side like erosion over time 

We let people dictate influence to our existence, 
darkness hides depths with vengeance to destroy 
Do we want be others or be one who's portrait does not 
fade ever lasting sketch weathering storms 
Man can't destroy temple we build inside, only body's 
material possession does he find weakness 
Obedience, one nation under God for truth, 
justice and liberty with interpretation
