Scarred World

To embrace future one must put behind past 
Scars of the world feeds our depths emotions 
Hatred upon our hearts just as we find love 
I come from beauty but do not find 
A image into reality concept to living 
Broken soul with no perception has what purpose 
But the darkness which laid that feeds 

Man's spirit embrace but are they free 
Tied to world torn beneath their own greed 
Past graves as if today demise be meet 
We as society united in themselves wicked doing 
Diverse humanity denouncing religion beliefs to existence 
Pleasure of one's desire devouring the journey 

We are blind as if naive our mind deadly as the tongue 
Where comes the soul creatures breath life 
Blood run veins pumped survival instinct 
Spiritual deposition of man who walked the waters 
Where is it we live but yet to endure peace 
Except among mankind, cuts lashed bone deep 
Scars, reminder world's beating to man I become 
Scarred by world ambition I die sin to law 
Not of the world my soul I give but only the body
