Society

Lutalican

 I don't understand

How our dreams get buried in the sand

Or how our unseen machine routines

Day in day out

Stick us in a social drought

Human interaction

Should happen

Instead it's barely a fraction

Of our daily action

 

Take a stand, gain some traction

Be that stonewall

 --Thomas J Jackson--

Fasten up become your life's captain

Take control

 --All Pro madden--

Be brave jump the canyon

Follow your life's passion

Trust me it'll happen

Just stay off the bandwagon

 

It is time to take action

Don't correspond

Lead a life beyond-

-Beyond the norms

And reforms of society

Live your life properly

Don't be treated like property

It's a governmental robbery

Meant to leave you in poverty

I hate to tell you but

You'll never win the lottery

 

Its nothing but a mockery

Meant to distract you from

The improperly, disorderly

Entirely bribery

Dirty and unworthy

People we call leaders

They are more like breeders

Watching from the bleachers

Viewing us like creatures

 

It’s time to be teachers

It’s time to be speakers

It’s time to be dreamers

We can change the world

be a truth seeker
