To Whatever End

In the world of fallen angels
The other kind of daredevils
Seeking the world’s attention
Competing for world domination

This is the moment to believe
In something more, to be brave
When life is a misty blair
Uncertainty stifles the air
Under such immense pressure, 
To defend what we treasure

Try hard not to sweat
Swallow hard to wet the dry throat,
This is a ticking time bomb
Sensitivities brushed with a fine comb
My thinking starts to clear
Amidts memories that brings a tear

Sitting on a potential disaster
A sociopathic monster
I must get away from here
I look for the nearest door

I walk with fear in my heart
A 'can’t help myself feeling’ I’m bait
I know it’ll only drive us apart
I see my anthropology in his hate
I yell out, “Foreigner” 
But he’s no stranger
Although he acts alien
I choose to call us brethren

I believe in the science
More than the obvious sings
Of peace coming forth
To desolve this mammoth
Back to the undesirable past
And move forward together fast

That I must do my part
To help set right the fight
I’ll take the first step
To bring this to a stop
And reach out my hand
To make an enemy a friend
