Society

It's hard to understand another person's story

 I can never relate to the struggles before me

You can't judge someone by looking in the mirror

You have to wipe the dust off so the picture can be clearer

Everyday we learn something brand spanking new

It's up to you to determine if those things are true 

Some people are bad, Some people are good

Wr need to act the right way just like we should

But people tend to fall off, that's an aberration 

Chasing their evil goals for their own desperation 

Innocent people cry and die for no apparent reason

Trying to survive another cold hard season

We need to stand up for ourselves and others 

Protectibg special people like our sisters and brothers

I think people today are too sociable 

Gettibg tricked by their friends because they are gullible 

Hurting themselves to "do it for the vine"

Should be focused on the news and today's horrible crime

I wish I could watch the news without feeling sorrow

Praying everyday and hoping for tomorrow 

Treat people right like it's your last day

But sadly not everyone can be treated that way

Running away from reality like its a marathon

But you can't escape fate because life goes on and on

These are just some thoughts that live inside of me

Hope we an change this evil society
