Coming Attractions

When you don't appreciate something
It will eventually be taken from you
The value of words are looked at as cheap
So sometimes you have to show people
When you just repetitively speak
Some will think that you're playing
Then you have to hit them with a shock
To defibrillate their unconscious brain
Many need that awakening to comprehend
That they are fortunate and have it good
By consciously pulling away from them
In order for your message to be understood
People will take, take, and take some more
Until there isn't anything left on your plate
And your sustenance keeps being ignored
Because unselfishness just doesn't correlate
When you respect, love & treasure someone
You prove it through your consistent actions
When the game gets flipped it's no longer fun
Now you're forced to deal with the coming attractions
