People are so much into looking good and on "fleek",
Instead of actually paying attention to the poor and weak,
They're more involved to what's on their phone,
Not knowing most people can't even afford a home,
...

I be looking for happiness in all the wrong places,
Everyone around me be having long unhappy faces,
Of all things, why it have to be you?
Nobody, not even I have a single clue,
...

Truth be told,
It was a silent room filled with things of old,
Her eyes so bright from the moons gleam,
As she ducked her head from a broken beam,
...

Everything around me gets loud,
But at the very same time - it feels like I'm floating on a cloud,

Snapping back into harsh reality,
...

With each passing hand reading off the time,
As the clock strikes 12 with its alarming chime,

Standing in the center for all getting old,
...

Whatever happened to all of us?
Now-a-days all you can hear from all the nations is a pleading cry and a fuss.
When will we be re-united together as one?
Instead, all we ever do is hide and run..
...
