Soul vs. Society

Location

 

My soul is a flame

Piercing the abysmal depths of despair

Lighting the way for the lost

 

But society has its hold

Money is the only goal

You say to work for the money

But then I forfeit my soul

There’d be no more fire

Society to live for

But nothing to die for

 

You’re stuck

You can’t see what’s inside

Blinded by darkness

Blinded by society

Unable to see

 

That I’m shining for you
