(In the past)
I've been defined by fears
Not who I am
(What I believe)
Ridiculed into absurdity
As I desperately
Await my time
(Not anymore)
Now burdened with
Glorious purpose
(Not running away)
But towards
The world I want to see
Futility breeds apathy
But I'll never stop
I won't let go
Without this
I’m aimlessly drifting in space
My existence an accident
A fluke
Unintended
I’ll go down fighting
Before I accept standing for nothing
I’ll fight till my last breath
I will see change
I‘ll live to see change
Our rights
Are locked behind a paywall
A premium
An artificial limitation of resources
Put in place for the masses
Higher purpose can be found on earth
Serving your fellow man
Don’t wait for a deity to step down
And fix the mess we made ourselves
We’ve gotta save ourselves
From the ones who call themselves peers
Won’t stop
Even if it takes a lifetime
Progress over perfection
Take steps
In the right direction
It’s better than sitting lethargic
Hoping to see the
Horizon of a better tomorrow
Patron saint of lost causes
Is what they’ll call me
Fighting a hopeless war
For the bigger picture
Climate change and animals and human rights and poverty
So fucking exhausting
I’d love to be ignorant
But I’m not blind
I can see and something
Has got to change
Join forces
Build bridges
To the palaces we aim to burn down
Voice of the voiceless
Homes for the homeless
Rights for all
No one to tell you who to be or who to love
Recklessly outspoken at every turn
Searching for answers
Asking all the right questions
Not sure where we will go from here
Recklessly outspoken
Aggressively articulate
On matters more important
Vitally urgent
Teaching others empathy
Seems sisyphean
But I'll roll that boulder
Till the sun burns out
If you don't care
If you're truly
Apathetic
To all of this
Perhaps it's time for you
To carve yourself open
And see if you
Have a fucking heart
Patron saint of lost causes
Is what they’ll call me
And I shall
Bear that title proudly
As I fight another day
But I'm not blind I know this
Will take an amalgamation
Of forces bigger than me so
Join forces
Build bridges
To the palaces we aim to burn down
I've been defined by fears
Not who I am
(What I believe)
Ridiculed into absurdity
As I desperately
Await my time
(Not anymore)
Now burdened with
