Conscious Yet?

CATEGORY

Views: 476

The world we inhabit only inhabits us

Too bad it's not in God we trust

We often live through our eyes

Believing what we'rd told and what we can see

F!ck moral high ground or history fact checking

We accept half truths and lies like the blind to darkness

And have the audacity to judge according to the status quo

But that's what we do in today's testament

We rarely open up or go outside our comfort zone 

Don't believe me? Ask the man dying as we walk over him

We are lost at sea please SOS  Before it's too late

But wait I've digressed  

 

So for those of us left marked by the stars in our skies

We label being awake as some kind of consciousness

 

For some of us are aware of the deception

Used for pop control and martial law

We pull together the pieces of our lost histories

Divided by race and broken unity

We scramble to put our ancestors in place

Not realizing even then the world was a small place

A genetic marker instead left in lieu of apparent legacy

Technological advancement widens this burden

Making us all categorize our neighbors and friends

Further deepening ignorance and lost identities

And some of us understand the fragmented unity

That separates us from enlightened possibilities
