Silenced souls lie dormant in shallow hollows
Screaming in defiance
Superceded by desolate airs of arrogance
How far we've fallen
Pathetic shells of a once stunning self
Most fail to recognize the importance
While others study the signal but still fail to absorb it
Who are we?
We are the children of 2 deemed criminal
Ragged extensions of the original
Our time is limited
This journey is meant for excellence
We need to finish it
I fair no better
Endeavors bash and batter me into tormented submission
I see the vision but it escapes me
Or maybe i'm just lazy
Or crazy
Reward and Punishment aren't equal
They spawn a span that could stretch across the universe
Expanding as it does
And as it was we are intended for all things beautiful
Though we've grown fond of our own ugliness
Its been foretold that this Earth will fold
Expelling its contents while expressing HIS dominance
And there we'll stand
Terrified and naked
In front of the 1 who created it
Wake up!

    This was pretty enlightening and the word play was on point.. I digged this joint.. It was beautifully written.

    People aren't gonna wake up till doomsday arrives. If it ever arrives..

    In the mean time, keep on expressing your thoughts, persepctives, and so on to the masses..

    Peace! Thnx for sharing btw..
