Result

Some point at principles as high as Everest 
But when it comes to practice no exult
Appears, and more so, no interest 
So what has been achieved, what's the result?
Conventions, declarations and agreements
Attempts of paperwork to stop the time
Let’s count the profit gained from these events
I want to hear about result if you don’t mind
For all that’s good in human, let’s enhance it
I can’t believe it must be complex or occult 
After the hardships overcome we all admit 
Don’t disappoint, just tell me the result
You wise men in your offices, or beggars
On wetted benches in the park, excuse me please
What’s the result of all the good for us
Apart of air we're still allowed to breathe?
