This life has to be worth living.
There has to be more to this life.
There is more than taking another.
Killing and taking a life.

Forcing another to accept my view it isn’t natural to do.
Will you be angry :bully: and take my head off if I disagree with you.

Something is wrong with you.

Something is wrong with this picture.

I have this friend from another land.
My friend from a land that is oppressed like me.
He’s older than me and from another clan.
When he sees me he sticks out his hand.


He lives here in this land of plenty.
He never changes his tone and demeanor.
Even when he expresses a fault that be.
He is always there for me.

He tells the truth no matter the issue.
He knows you can't always be the winner.

I want to be like him.

This life is melting down to be a social cancer.
It eats away at our nature.
He sees things as they should be
and I see them as they ought.

We agree the things we each do see.
Is the same in any form it is sold.
We can't give up.

Something’s wrong and I know that it’s taken.
Life has to have more than this.
It has much to offer to all.

It speaks to me and I know this.
Its essence is stolen from those who knew how.
To use it and taken by those who don’t.

I don’t think it is our nature to kill.
So why are we doing it. Don’t!

Don’t be simple and follow the crowd.
They will lead you off a soul rotten cliff.
They will listen while you scream out loud.
But they won’t answer.

They are busy buying more souls
for the taking and strife.
I know there has to be more than this.
I know there is more to this life.
