To Be Free

poetboy123

I don't have anything to write

Or do I just have nothing to say?

I feel like I'm just running away

It's dark so I'll turn on the light

 

CONCERN #1: The Wrong Idols

Celebrities picked for the looks, but not for their hearts

People now the Kardashians, but not Elon Musk

While she twerked, he worked getting his start

So why have people never heard of him?

 

CONCERN #2: Ignorance

Not saying that we all shouldn't have fun

There's a time for that, and a time to get stuff done

Go surfing the web, so many truths to be found

Instead of wasting all your time, just lying around

 

CONCERN #3: Silence

Something is wrong and we all know it

We ignore, push it to the back of your mind

Hell no to that, the truth's ugly, but face it with grit

It will be painful, yet through it happiness you'll find

Wield your rage, though not letting it take you

Yell out at every fault, help others see

Stay on the right, keep your heart true

For this suffering is to be free
