Who Knows

How do you people live 
just bouncing through life as you do
don't you care that nothing matters
don't you want to see the proof
If all life ends the same
be you man or be you beast
Then why not just do what I want
And enjoy the release
I'm screaming for a purpose
for something larger than myself
but don't get it twisted 
I just want the truth
I'm not seeking any help
you see those like you are beneath me
the evolutionary past
you accept what u cant understand
a proud sheep to afraid to ask
but in truth I understand
I get why you stand in fear
after all the dark is scary
there could be monsters in here
Survival is your everything
the goal you put first
with no understanding of what comes next
like a child you assume the worst
