Man in the Mirror

 We won't even make honorable mentions

Hearts grow heavy like thrashing fists
End of time, the end of wits... we losing
But wait...

Is it irrational, to think like animals
Act like savages, to feel our reckoning?
To feed on the everlasting large idea,
That something seperates the two of us
Through roadblocks insurmountable,
In kingdoms that rule over us.

We wake up each day with an added aggression
Cause shit no longer works, and our lessons won't lessen
Cause we sleep on the message, the timing and its essence
I ain't no messiah, but does it take a king to see?
We gladly die and loosely, lose grip on reality
Take a seat and make some tea, theres no going back

The train crashed, the boat sank, the plane bombed from the sky
We fall fast, with no name, yet we ask ourselves why
Caught in lie, victimized, often sensing an angle
Looking over our shoulders, growing increasingly flagrant

So if this is the sink hole, tell me wheres it all draining?
And why are we waiting? For brief explanations?
For meek confrontations? Please do some explaining
Not just mere rearranging, but a broad transformation

Not for me, or to neighbors, but to the man in the mirror
Its high time we begin to see reflections some clearer
Both emotional tides and Serendipitous scriptures
Are constructing the vibe of the widening picture

Things will only get worse, before they get better
And before we can fight we must learn to surrender
To the inner-man, inner-plan, remarkable vision
For the power inside trumps that of politicians

When the chasms grown wide from a lack of decision
We must fall, flow, and rise towards a new situation
We must tee off from lies and revolutionize systems
We must lift up our eyes towards the summits of heaven
