Verse
People are ambivalent
to criticism
Consumed by
utter embolism
Bitterness
and cynicism
We achieve
fruition
When you
believe it’s you who makes the decision
To seek
knowledge instead of accepting limits
Falling for
fake and false promises gimmicks and tricks
While you
use the excuse censorship protects the kids
The
unfortunate harsh reality is
Guns bombs
and knives take lives
Deceptive
overprotective parents try to hide their child’s eyes
Constantly compromise
and tell white lies
Which will
be their demise
‘Cause they
can’t see the truth
Words become
weaponous tools
Letting them
hurt you fool
When they’re
used to spew skewed views
Abuse or
confuse and screw the rules
What’s
historically true could all be a ruse
Messages got
mixed up through telephoned news
Astute youths
will turn to prudes
When they’re
consumed with booze
Cruel dudes
who feud to exude buffoon goons
Too cool for
school
Will lose
out on a solid education
Have no chance
to advance or enhance a reformation
Translating
misinformation
Don’t align
adjacent
Keeping
their minds vacant
Quiet and
complacent
Totally
incapable of solving an equation
Favoring
blaming and debating
What I’m
saying
Is the
correlation
Making and
perpetuating hating
Violence and
discriminating
Quit bitching
fiction and complaining
By
exaggerating you’re creating the fraying
Fading and
decaying
I’m done
sitting silent and waiting
Can’t we
rise to the occasion
Use our
brains and start elevating
Chorus
I’m a bit
concerned
That we’ll
never learn
To take our
turn
We all get
burned
But you
shouldn’t give up
On dreams or
love
Please understand
We’re just
man
Reap what
you sow
But there’s
no control
So go with
the flow
No one knows
What the
future holds
Are we inept
To
comprehend intellect and depth
Verse
I’m feeling
conceiving human beings
Ever seeing
logic and reasoning’s
Fleeing and fleeting
People are
bleeding
For love a
hug
But not from
sluts or shmucks
Deception’s
infecting
Plaguing our
perception
Exemption’s
a manmade invention
Erections
like intentions
Paving the
gold roads to hell
But oh well I
thought you could tell
We’re too
scared of wisdom
We won’t
listen
Lacking the
vision life’s mission’s
All about ambition
The desire
to inspire
Keep
reaching higher
Helping
others aspire
To not fuel
the fire
Embrace
imperfection
Greet
failure as a blessing
This
incessant testing is festering
Messing with
the lessons
Taught in
adolescence
I still feel
a presence
Mustn’t
confess then
Every time I
look in the mirror
I see things
clearer
But my reflection
seems to be getting inferior
Too old and
hairier
Colder and
scarier
I’m daring ya
To pray for a day
Enlightenment can find the way
To the forefront
I’m done hun
With everyone else’s opinions
Good riddens
Fuck focusing on what’s forbidden
And the prison system
Where they’re exhaustingly persistent
On us being trained
To stay and maintain the same
Don’t change
Remain restrained tame and conditioned
It’s sickening disciplining victims
Aren’t we all originally born with sin
Why won’t anyone admit
This bullshit that won’t quit
Is leaving me forced to legitimately spit this
Chorus
I’m a bit
concerned
That we’ll
never learn
To take our
turn
We all get
burned
But you
shouldn’t give up
On dreams or
love
Please understand
We’re just
man
Reap what
you sow
But there’s
no control
So go with
the flow
No one knows
What the
future holds
Are we inept
To
comprehend intellect and depth
Verse
You know I’ve
come to learn that with words
It’s all how
you use them
Really they’re
just a bunch of letters put together
I’m sorry
for all you kids and hypocrites
But this is
some real shit
And I refuse
to censor my lyrics
So you’ll
actually get to listen to and here this
I mean
really
You shouldn’t
fear swears
They do
emote the truth
