Back Into Gear Part 2

So hope is needed so we can carry on positively and cope,
For those who see what reality really is through their intellectual scopes,
Many turn to dope even as far as a piece of rope, 
In pain put it around their neck and choke,
Broken mentally in a society that addresses suicide quietly,
So we need change,
Exchange these devilish ways of decay,
Look around you at the results on display,
Am I crazy in a state of amazement of the actions of today?
I see it clearly, 
Can you hear me?
Can you see the acts of all the ignorance being ignored?
A human flaw more insane than blood stains of war,
What for? Glory and a history story for the coming generations of sin,
My thoughts spin as I witness what this monstrosity brings,
So I have no faith in humanity as one, 
Together we live underneath the sun but we plunder,
Is there a savior out there looking over the earth? 
If so bring the thunder and strike down man with a hunger,
To learn and understand the consequences of our actions,
Which brings the reactions of disturbing the natural law interactions,
Can we overcome our petty distractions?
The ones that make us silly, stupid and dumb,
Ask yourself how far have you really come?
When you don't know your purpose and where you’re from,
For some will be enlightened and the remaining will continue to fall,
Words of wisdom installed but killed by the human state of ignorance in us all.
