Paradise

Some say we are created from the big boss in heaven
  
Others say we just exploded from one big piece of rock  
   
Did it only take him one day or nearly seven  
   
Maybe it took monkeys first to open the human lock  
   
Whatever happened, we all have to survive in this harsh place  
   
   
Mankind will pray and animals kill prey  
   
Animals can be cute and mankind can't refute  
   
Holy men can preach and scientist can teach  
   
Scientist want real proof and holy men, kneel under one roof  
   
Whatever happens, we all have to respect this harsh place  
 
   
Young kids are bopping, with no respect for others  
   
Others are always mopping, cleaning up for the young  
   
Society is lost in space, while men in black infiltrate  
   
Black men are being gunned down, as Ferguson starts to gain pace  
   
Shits still happening, do we have to die on this harsh place?  
 
   
We either yearn for a faraway place of paradise with our God  
   
Or we just dissolve in dirt because we didn't earn his nod  
   
Is this the paradise we should all be waiting for and so much more?  
 
   
Some believe in reincarnation, coming back to this harsh nation  
   
So many times, before they find Nirvana and are released from karma  
   
Is this the paradise we should all be waiting for and so much more?  
   
   
Others think they will have 72 new girlfriends waiting to see them  
   
Does that mean there wives will also have 72 new gentlemen to please?  
   
Is this the paradise we should all be waiting for and so much more?  
   
NO.....  
 
Just live this life, right here, right now, on this harsh place, I call paradise.
