Society's People

People of today's society, what is it man or woman That behind the hidden screen of a picture Is it that of a falsehood or being Is it that of something real or negative feeding on you What is it in society today that we are who we are That we are such destruction, deceiving, little conniving I say, what is it that we are except we make ourselves But who we are is what God would like us to be Is it there in depths of darkness soul emerges A light be it not true its worthiness to breathe To live and conquer all that I am in me What is it you prey upon my wellness even in death Your deceitfulness even to friend as yourself Forgiveness you ask as thou stab me deeply My emotions played like a game you can not win Love, just a word text, abuse and used Are our dreams washed like yesterday's rain Our hopes pass like cloud we lay it on Staring into Heaven's Gate prey for healing heart Desires of human flesh devouring our depths Society's People, real or fake Who do we say we are!
