We.Want.JUSTICE!!

Are my emotions affected by yours?
Or yours by mine?
I can no longer tell who is in control of what
Who's in control of the love
Who's in control of the motions
My heart his tired
My love is empty
My lust is drained
Sore is what my soul is
From the constant work out of life
Chances pass me by
Opportunities missed
Dreams lost
What is a person to do
We are only humans
Only breathing vessels of dirt
Nothing more
We weren't meant to destroy this god created planet
Only live in it
Treat it right, be kind to mother nature
We have long since forgotten our destinies
Long since forgotten our humanity
Long since forgotten our souls
Technology tears us away from it
Laziness is the birth child of machines
Cruelty is the child of greed
Freed the child of power
An endless cycle to a cycle that needs ending
A beginning to a book that should have never been started
Only we the people can make a change
Only we the people cn stand up and say,
"Hey! We are humans, we have rights! GOD given rights got damn it!"
Or we can just sit back and watch as our world dwindles away to dust
The very dust that we're made of
Love
Love is the main ingredient to this concoction
This stew of peril
Demise
Hatred
Throw love in and the stew will begin to taste good
The stew will have that one ingredient it needed to taste just right
The good that over shadows the bad
The light that shows the darkness
Come on people
What are you doing with yourselves
Media brainwash
A bunch of hosh posh if you ask me
Controlled by fear
Control by fear
Listen to my fucking words
Can you hear?!
Can you hear...
Can you?
Because if you can then get off that ps3
Get off that Mac
Get out of the wendies
Put that blunt down
......
Scratch that last one
Get motivated
Get pumped
Where are my Martin Luthers?
Where are my malcom X's?
Where are the einsteins?
Find me
Because I'm looking for you.
I'm searching for a human treasure
A treasure full of dreams and rebellion
One that will say "We're not your pack mules anymore! We want our freedom! We want our liberty! We. Want. JUSTICE!!!!!
