Open your eyes
See the truth
Don't blind yourself
With others views
The media
The news
They decide your thoughts
But think on your own
Everything can't be bought
Money is money
Don't seek it out
You'll forget what's real
Filling love ones with doubt
Don't stain yourself
With greedy intentions
Feuding over material
Creates nothing but tension
We're fighting for nothing
And we're too naive
Killing people over what we want
Forgetting what we need
Peace and Unity
Forget the differences
You're you, and I'm me
So just let it be
Why can't we stop this hate?
We're growing, but immature
We're falling back to a state
That we should be over
But it's getting worse
Living anymore
Seems like a curse
I want it to end
But it takes us all
Help another stand
Catch them if they fall...
Every now and then I get the urge to write something like this which is different for my normal writing, but I'm currently in a transition of trying to pull myself out of a rut and believing in hope that things will change not just for me, but for all of us, helps me see past the clouds of darkness that surround me....

Also, I know a lot of people on here probably aren't 'rap' oriented, but I've always been inspired by the song "Changes" by Tupac Shakur and today this little write hit me...
