Sledged
If only we were similar, you and me
I would think of a better world
And in this moment of disparity
I would be something else than the dirt
Here to the world listening to us
I have a question, question I must
What are we? Bones, flesh or a soul?
Twisted? Corrupted? Insanely bold?
There is so much red out there
On the streets and on the bed
Crying for love, for life and for us
I think about it when I write
The wounded face, the heart of a five
His tiny hands and innocence drenched in red
Mourning our lives, the life that should have been a fest
But here we hide into our own minds
When the world burns in hatred
And in greed our souls are being sledged
