Blinkered people
Live blinkered lives
Buy into domesticated lies
Question them they return hate
Rooted as they are in negatives states
They lack the capicity to love
To be positive or understand enough
Of what truth really truly is
Not being able to free think
But I respect their views and thoughts
They’re only regurgitating what they’ve been taught
Toxic them makes them hard to engage
So my advice is to best stay away.
I seek
I share
I dare to care
I’ve travelled
Here, there
And everywhere
And the truth is
People I met were good
Shared love
And friendship
Because they understood
That we are one
United humanity
Only divided
By those of hate and greed
And who wish to rule
And control everything.
I would like to prorogue this system
And shut it right down
Dissolve it for causing inequality and letting fear abound
It promotes division and xenophobia and instills hate and greed
And all the fucking time it’s the vulnerable that bleed
Prorogue this crumbling capitalistic farce
It is no longer working
It’s time to find some new ideas
That stops people from hurting.
Money is protected
And people get hurt
In a society where money is God
But people are treated as dirt
Where the wealthy one percent
Sip champagne in ivory towers
We are forced to work
For low pay, zero hours, each and every day
Not knowing if our basic pay
Will be covered by our meagre wage
And the screw keeps getting tightened
And life is always really harsh
I remember reading about the Tolpuddle march
And wonder why in these days we don’t also start
To unite and rise up and demand something new
Capitalism is failing we need a new special brew
The political party system is corrupt floored and archaic
We need to revolutionise our system so let’s break it
And start a fresh with equality central and rooted at the core
Where money is not as important
And where people are valued more.
They are burning, slashing, cutting down trees around Africa
It’s not just the Amazon and Indonesia
Anywhere its happing its plain to see
It’s going to harm this earth
And our children and their children yet to be seen
But there is something we can do as well as protesting
Encourage everyone you know to join in unity
And put a plan together and start planting new trees
And make environmentalism one of your core philosophies
And make saving this warh and future generational beings
Not have to live within a world where its difficult to breathe in
Because in our ignorance and greed we destroyed everything.
The rain teems down
As the day turns grey
But I see light come what may
And each droplet I cherish
And give gratitude too
For it nourishes life
It is earth’s essential food
And though I may get wet
And soaked to the skin
I still give it my thanksgiving
Rain refreshes everything
And ensures life grows
And this to me is amazing
In the rain, on a grey day
My hope and positivity
It is always raised
In the rain, on a grey day
My enduring heart will always remain.
