What’s real,

Is it what we see or feel,

Or is it that so many people dying from illegal drugs and prescription pills,

We so worried about war over seas what about the war we’re fighting on our own field,

Homelessness, racism, police brutality, war, hate, politics and government,

How do you think this feels,

They don’t want to talk about this,

Look at the lies they teach our kids,

How could Christopher Columbus discover America if the Indians were already here,

In fact they taught them how to live,

And make use of the land then they were killed,

What’s real,

Is that this country was built off the backs of slaves,

Some we don’t even know there names,

Or even show any appreciation for there skills,

And that’s real,

To the woman who made me a better me,

You loved and sheltered me,

Like the soil does a seed,

Forgive me for my mistakes I know I’ve hurt you like insects and weeds,

You were my sunshine,

The way you shined your light on me makes me want to succeed,

You’re my loving flower,

And I’m the soil the light and the nutrients you need,

So don’t you see,

That without each other we can never be,

That beautiful flower or that tall tree,

Without you I’m but a lonely seed,

But in your hands I can grow into the man you want me to be,

I look to the sky,

Life ain’t going to be perfect you have your ups with your downs like a rollercoaster,

But do your best to enjoy the ride,

I know I’m not perfect thank God you look at the heart,

Cause even when my actions don’t show it,

In my heart I try,

I look to you and put my own thoughts and feelings to the side,

For when I’m in your hands I know I’m fine,

Nothing’s impossible for you -and you always provide,

So when I pray I wait for your reply,

Your will is perfect so in you will I rely,

If you lead me in your will I will comply,

I look to the sky,

Cause I know with you I can fly,

With you it’s living life it’s not just getting by,

I look to the sky,

And I look to you to become the best me before I die,

Why not love

We’ve tried hate,

Look at the message it illustrates,

Instead of anger,

Why can’t we try to communicate,

Between war violence racism and anger I’m wondering where is the love,

That’s what I want to investigate,

Love peace and unity is something I wish I could negotiate,

To make this a better life if not for us,

At least for the kids sake,

We need to change come up,

And get up from where we are,

And rise like cake,

Learn how to stick together like tape,

We don’t have to be the same race,

Or even the same faith,

To contribute to making the world a better place,
