Time I Have

People do so many things that make me mad but

Angry isn’t how I want to spend what time I have

Cognitive dissonance they call it

I wonder just how small it

Could be made to be in me

There so much disturbing short sighted shit

We must be able to do better than just live with it

I’m looking to find some peace within me to embrace

To encourage that smile to find my face

Sometimes I’m winning

Life in the city is so densely packed

Fear of each other is an accepted fact

Fear soaks into concrete just like grease

Fear is the antithesis of peace

“I have a dream,” a great man said

Another man came and shot him in the head

Yet the dream floats out there visible

Still alive... Still alive

Those who rule the middle kingdom hate

The old man in the robes

They put up road blocks everywhere he goes

He says, “have no anger in your heart for them

They know not what they do”

Does that sound familiar

To you... to you

Life in the city is so densely packed

Fear of each other is an accepted fact

Fear soaks into concrete just like grease

Fear is the antithesis of peace

Life in the city is so densely packed

Fear of each other is an accepted fact

Fear soaks into concrete just like grease

Fear is the antithesis of peace
