The Cleansing of the Rain

I fear that it's all on my shoulders
to lead by example
conquer these boulders
one step forward
brings these coals back to smolder
reignite this flame that is truth we beholders
we speak to reminisce
back when people gave a shit
now we have our hands out
always just expecting it
seek the change but won't work for it
society's in shambles but hold your tongue don't be offensive kid
mines is mines
but such clarity will cloud your mind
opinions sought but no one wants to make the time
to listen
express distaste for its state but won't step to the plate
they won't won't stand their position
invertebrates lack ignitions
to fuel the cognition's to know it's their spine that they're missing
strain the mind when we can't correlate
preach injustices but all we really do is perpetuate the hate

I pray for precipitation in stages
anecdotal form educational changes
academic street level basis verbatim
collecting all our thoughts before we voice all our statements
learn the facts before we rally in anger
monotheist's argue who's the true savior
separating at the seams imperial danger
waging all these wars based on secular favors
western civ no longer honors thy neighbors
instead of the game we just target the players
divide all the sides doing terrorists favors
won't consolidate ties because of wages and labors?
skin color favorites historical flagrance?
at which point is it over compensated behaviors?
white man oppressed except pro athletes and players?
when can we awake to see we're all humans with layers?

I mean i get it
yeah I guess I understand
my ignorance at play
and all the actions that I've really missed
rural white kid
both parents I've been blessed with
I'm just venting from the outside as I'm looking in
we've come so far since the cotton gin
segregation, Rosa Parks, and the bus she's in
Martin Luther King Jr. and that heart within
and now we have a reverend spreading lies that we're being blinded with
Al Sharpton and his racist hate within
perpetuating race debates and such negatives
it's skin
everything is color now that we're defining with
back to the beginning here we go
the race war begins
I can see it in the news and the television
lets boycott because the cable isn't
where we should be at this point in our existence
technology holds us hostage death grip like an isis prison
