Let me take a moment to teach
Women aren’t meant for you to leech
It doesn’t matter your fantasy
Nobody’s taking responsibility

These dudes unaware of how to stop
They want to blame the cops or their Moms and Pops
Indulged in their latest addiction
With a misuse of various definitions

Our government can’t even interpret its own constitution

Make a stand, hold some hands
Lead people out of the despicable plans
So many on auto-follow
They forget what it’s like not to be hollow

Get filled with knowledge and emotion
Mindless drones stirring up all this commotion
Hard to stop what you can’t see
So open your eyes to all that’s threatening

If you’re free then you can hear the pleas
Many crying out to simply be released
Held against their will
Forced to be silent and still

The media leading you astray
Harassment hasn’t gone away
Problems all around, slavery is here
No ethnic specificity, just to be clear

They’ll take anyone who has the look
Just to further fill their pocket books
If you feel you aren’t effected
Then I guess you have no connections

Treat others how you want to be treated
Don’t leave them behind broken and beaten
Regardless if they’re a friend or stranger
Nobody should have to endure these dangers

Distraction is the simplest form of deterrent
Hoping you won’t realize the lies is the difference
Find a way to acquire resolve
Since many of these problems need to be solved

Time Sink

What all could’ve been accomplished without addiction
How much more productivity would result without distraction
The time sink each week and wasted hours reveal
Just a ridiculous amount of statistical material

Research the new average spent going towards entertainment
While in this day that definition has been loosened
People trying to experience a form of fun
Get that fill of feeling that only can come from adrenaline

What if that time was spent in order to progress
Not in the event of that given situation, but something with substance
So much is ailing the masses around us
Yet, not many use their talents to try and prevail us

Blame it on the resources or effort that may be required
People still claiming to be too busy or too tired
When in reality they just lack the motivations
To give in to that aspect of their deepest compassions

Imagine all the reactions from inspirational action
Negativity still seems to dominate, but loses traction
Each and everytime courage is shown through interaction
Real love and respect always stems satisfaction

Improving yourself despite others leaves you forever alone
While improving others involving yourself breeds positive growth
Never lose that node of hope regardless of this current slippery slope
As long as there is breath the strength exists to help us all cope
