The Good Men 6 and 45

Life is like being an imaginary tree 
In a teeming, tangible forest 
On a pursuit with an invisible grail  
To no avail our reapings
So in doubt, a story is sewed
To no avail our teachings
Just rebellion of “you must”
Plus understanding of youths plow
That loosens up and refreshes the soul 
Exposing establishments rotten roots
Slicing and serving the perpetual   
Planting seeds of ideals peeled
Off utopias dream, sprouting from need
From release of constant conditioning 
You’re either dying or you’re new
And if innovation must be new 
Then stagnation is a leach
For a tree is known for it’s fruit 
Not for how far branches reach
So pick when ripe and before you blink
More will be surely bore from new 
Ripe or rotten? Good or bad?
Well, that’s up to you
