Societal Terms
Ignorance at work
Such is rumors
I plead as if you rake offense to this
I beg out of sorrow
For it is not intent to upset
But state
What is the typical truth
As seen through the teenage eyes
My age may be a teen
But my sight has lasted many life times
Is all I will state
As my words are my symphony
From another realm
In which you do believe me
I welcome you to this words of my symphony
Societal has fallen to its need of comformity
Ive seen this tale play out
I fear it’s the same story
We destroy what was given to us
To create a better world
We destroy what has helped us
To make it “better”
Yet so blindly
We don’t see the other side
We destroy
Not only that but a bit of what makes a
Mortal man
We see the environment getting destroyed
What do we do about
Oh
We tweet about how we are gonna fix it later
But we don’t get it
The later may not be here
We are in the moment so much
We are blind to the rest
We are faced with
Survival for now
Or survival for longer
The choice will be chosen
By the hand
Of humanity
