lyrics

For those who are silenced or misunderstood; for all the brokenness in this world, I speak with a power un-paralleled. Conviction behind every word. You'll feel that it's different the second that you become witness. Can you envision what I see in the midst of our broken society? Can you feel for why I bleed? This is about much more than you and me. This is about justice. This is about slavery. Running, always running. Do we know any other pace? It seems we don’t. Isn’t that something? that we will always win the race? But I have to wonder what keeping ahead means when everything we're chasing means absolutely nothing. I have to wonder how we can't see the ways in which we've lost touch with our surroundings. We have to slow down and wake up to the stench. If we can't smell it, then we're already dead. Dead as the mindsets that we use. Dead as the crutches we abuse. Dead as the things that we consume. Why did we have to become so far removed? We abandoned our true nature in the fragile state of our youth. Our world view is compromised by the actions that we choose. This life was never meant to be "you take from me, I take from you.". Yet this is how we live. Looking for what we can take rather than what we can give. This is the ORIGINAL SIN. Rejecting the truth THAT WE CAN FEEL FROM WITHIN. It's such a shame we must be shaken to see it worth it to awaken. We move so quickly we can't see the desperate state of our reality. (Earth).
