Overcome

Helter skelter, run for shelter have you always been this uptight I tired to make things better but you only wanted a fight over come what people have done and the things that they say, they not know of what they do i herd someone pray overcome the poison in your veins overcome their fashions of greed and hate overcome the echo of lies in this tasteless colony don't be a drone, be a fly forgiveness is healthy hate is power hour by hour people march in confusion pride is what controls them.

A thought provoking piece. I especially like the last stanza. Kim
