Break Free

The messages you receive are lies

Propaganda and cynicism that give rise

To fears and insecurities that cause you to despise

Yourself and those with open eyes

You can decorate the tree but the root is the same

No matter how many times you change the rules of the game

Fussing and fighting and assigning blame

It is only yourself that you defame

Hypnotized by a false reality

You submit to a shortsighted mentality

In the process losing your morality

Now you’re headed for spiritual fatality

We were not born wicked nor in sin

We were born in love…don’t let them spin

Their lies from the outside in

The truth goes deeper than your skin

Break free from the shackles of lies

Dust off prejudices and rise

To heights that the wicked despise

See the world with open eyes

Come Together

Disengaged lovers separated by a dime

Can’t connect to each other, too many mountains to climb

Bills to be paid money to be made

Through a minutia of nonsense and bullshit they wade

Passion and compassion thrown to the side

The brass rings they chase can’t bridge the divide

Their vision is tunneled by the “things” they chase

But silver and gold is not the prize for this race

Love is left dangling for another time

When the clock runs out it becomes a crime

Withheld affection is like manslaughter

Then the empire you’re building begins to totter

Twisted priorities are our biggest disgrace

And will become the ruin of the human race

Holding love for ransom robs humanity

All love “games” are pure insanity

Yet in times of need we expect love to be there

Giving us comfort, relief and care

But love is a fire that needs to be stoked

Neglected, the flame will eventually be choked

So reunite, lovers, I beg of you

Give love a chance to blossom anew

It will be your only savior in the end

Because only love will help you ascend
