Core


What's wrong and what's right?
we're thinking with all our might
while they decide black from white

dogs are beaten, aloud their cries
for food while beggars pray 
and live as moments sway

in the hopes of a magical something 
the reality is dark, and doped on evil 
liquor in crystal glasses on refill 
why did we forget our place of being 
while destiny does not come with foreseeing 
indeed, the reality
tis birth of proclivity 
while perpetually are we, alone and sad
nobody cares...the world is mad
