Keep living

media overrules

becoming  a cesspool

falsifying statements

Is everyone's news

political views

keeping us confused

medicating with booze

to soothe your mind

so you can make it through

searching for equality 

find yourself being april fool

a feeling to break loose

you want to throw your hands up

and call a truce 

encountering so many blows 

begin to count every bruise

you find away to preserve

your mental state

from that dark place 

called contemplate

this globe don't stop spinning

everyone gets a turn

what you thought

you would never see 

keep living and then you learn
