Why do we hurt, when we can heal?
Can we stand up for anything anymore?
Can we rise together?
Can we come together and fight the ills that plague our society?
Greed, lies, corruption and hatred
Divide us
Conquer us,
Ills us,
Hurts us
Why do we fight?
When love is so much more precious?
When love feels so good?
Is our ego
Pride,
Vanity
That much more precious that the cost of it
Is to lose it all
Can we stand up for truth anymore?
Can we see past the lies
And see what truly matters
Our survival as loving, caring human beings that are here to heal
Not hurt
Can we ever see beyond the words that trick us
That separate us,
Divide us,
Conquer us
With more lies
That plague us like a disease
That ravages all in its path
We have seen great wars
Great plagues
Great famines
Great atrocities
Yet why do we hesitate to stand up
To fight back
To love through all that is dark and hateful
Why do remain with our ills that plague us all
That divide
Conquer and hurt not heal?
