The Evolution of Mankind
The next evolution of mankind,
to find our meaning within ourselves and not in nations or flags,
not in sacramental ideals nailed to the walls of another's creed,
not in the pigmentation of our hair, blood or skin.
When will mankind grow up
and stop leaning on the crutches of governments, religion, or greed.
When will we cast off the yoke of our need to be told what to believe.
When will we be free?
to find our meaning within ourselves and not in nations or flags,

When will mankind grow up
and stop leaning on the crutches of governments, religion, or greed.
When will we cast off the yoke of our need to be told what to believe.
When will we be free?
