Ciceron - The word

Imagine living' in a world that is at war with itself.
Where it's inhabitants are LOST and CONTROLLED by their wealth;
or lack thereof. And FEAR is their dominant trait.
Which breeds IGNORANCE and causes them to feel IRATE.
It causes them to HATE, causes them to MURDER and RAPE.
Causes them to build prisons which they can not ESCAPE.
It causes them to wonder how much more of it they can take.
Which causes them to BREAK, thinking life was all a MISTAKE.

So as a mistake, they see NO POINT in trying so hard,
IN picking up GARBAGE, live their lives with little regard
for what they do, or what they say, or-who-they-HURT.
They see no consequense s so there's little alert
when things go wrong. So nothing gets fixed, it only gets WORSE.
They figure if they can't live clean, they'll live in the DIRT.
But they're not happy in the dirt, so they start to COMPLAIN
'bout POLLUTION, about LIES, about JEALOUSY and PAIN.

About HUNGER and DESTRUCTION, VANDELISM and GREED.
About THEFT, about not having enough of what they need.
About VIOLENCE, about DEATH, about CHAOS and DECAY
About putting up with the same INJUSTICES everyday.
And their PRIDE causes them to SABBOTAGE one another.
It makes RIVALRY turn a brother against his own brother.
'magine living in THAT world with ALL the troubles it brings.
Well, doesn't the world we're livin' in have every one of these things?

H'yeha I think it does. As-a-matter-of-fact i KNOW it.
But we don't have to blow it. So now I'm out to show it.
I think we owe it to ourselves to try to make a difference.
And all I'm askin' is you take a minute just to listen.

With full attention. Cuz this lesson is not one to be missin'.
Or be forgettin'. Please take your seats 'cause now class is in session.
And what I'm stressin' is spreadin' the message in my mission.
Which is to make a better EXISTANCE to live in. Listen,

WE're the inhabitants, FEAR is OUR dominant trait.
We're afraid of what might happen if we break our common ways.
We're afraid of being BRAVE, we're afraid to use our BRAINS.
and when one of us is NOT afraid, we label them INSANE.
We're afraid of what is strange, what we're unfirmiliar with.
We're afraid to be OURSELVES, We're afraid to use our gifts.
'fraid to breaking convension, of breaking what's convenient.
SOMEtimes when someone's NOT afraid, we SAY that they're a GENius.

See it's a thin line between CRAZY and Brilliant.
That's why there's CONTROVERCY over those who make a difference.
They're persecuted first, but then later they're admired.
The person who's the worst is afraid to be inspired.
Tell me WHY are we so BLIND, we deny an open mind.
yet we're crying all the time, without trying hard to find
what we're hiding all inside. We're dividing up our lives!
IS IT WRONG FOR ME TO WANNA SEE HEAVEN BEFORE I DIE?

Pictue a place where all the people are in peace.
A Utopian Paradice_ where equality's free.
and friendship, togethernes s, & perfect harmony.
It makes sence to me so why is it that it's so hard to see?
Where we all could be in love and we all could happy,
and satisfied, content living as one, in unity.
and beautifully being strong, with faith power and purpose
Now correct me if i'm wrong, but dosen' this place sound perfect?....

But we're still Stuck here, feeling like we never have eNough here,
Outa Luck here, Sayin' "Life can be so Tuff." Yeeah,
When most of HEAven’s qualities are achIEVable here on earth,
It's a CHOICE to live better, but we're CHOOSIN' to live WORSE.
And the system DOESn't work, at least not the way it is,
'till we impliment some CHANGEs, that what my vision IS...
And I ain't givin' in untill my M
