What is value
What is worth
Why do so many question their purpose on earth
Be it a guide mentor or teacher some seek higher words that come from the preacher
Some seem lost looking for a clue while the new phrase is just do you
Life’s veracity does have a sting whether you are chasing paper or that gold ring
So many adrift with no anchor or hope substances can be as chilling as one dangling from the end of a rope
At times it seems so hard just to stand
The ground beneath your feet as uneven as shifting sand
Nameless faces marred by pain on street corners you see them again and again
Tossed about by the prevailing wind they once had a beginning now heading towards a fateful end
A endless barrage of hidden fears unearthed as the light of truth draws near
Illumination can lead to clarity to make the truly lost be able to see
One thing is true under the sun you can’t escape this life without believing in something or someone
In life sometimes you have to resurrect after a disconnect
From watergate to JFK politicians have always had their day
Now we are upon the precipice of the greatest eve and so many are naive
Now is the moment now is the time
Shall we litigate justice or be like the blind leading the blind
Be you for or against is not the matter of the day
Freedom of speech is the matter in play
Be you timid or tenacious along your course
The power we have is to use our voice
