THIS IS REALITY
I LAY THERE DORMANT,
IN A VIOLENT DREAM,
CHAOS IS KING,
IN A LAND WHERE RAPIST,
AND KILLERS ROAM FREE,
BABIES BORN SLAVES,
TO A CHEMICAL,
INOCENT OF THEIR TOUCH,
HUSH…
AND JUST LISTEN TO THE CRIES,
IN A WORLD FULL OF LIES,
MOTHER NATURE WEEPS,
UPON DEAF EARS,
WE RATHER RUN,
THAN TO FACE FEARS,
HEROES MARCH TO THEIR DEATHS,
AS THE GOVERNMENT PLAYS CHESS,
WE BECOME PAWNS,
ASK QUESTIONS,
AFTER WEAPONS ARE DRAWN,
BULLETS FIRED,
ALMOST EVERY HOME,
IS NOW BROKEN,
YOU ONLY GET ONE TOKEN,
TO PLAY THIS GAME OF LIFE,
WORDS CAN SOMETIMES,
CUT DEEPER THAN A KNIFE,
ROLE MODELS,
KEEP GOING TO PRISON,
LISTEN,
IT’S 60 DEGREES,
IN THIS COLD WINTER SEASON,
TOO WRAPED UP,
TO SEE WE’RE FUCKED UP,
I TRY TO WAKE UP,
FROM THIS TERRIBLE DREAM,
I JUST WANNA SCREAM,
CUZ I REALIZE,
THIS IS REALITY,
SOONER OR LATER,
EVERYTHING DIES,
TOO HARD TO JUSTIFY,
SO LIKE THE REST OF THE WORLD,
I CLOSE MY EYES,
DAMN….
