Let the blood of your family shatter with guilt
Let the birds broken wing make you pray for it
Let the darkness give you time to know whats real
Let the sun hit you with the worlds heat and fear
Let your teachers burn your school
Let you books poison you with crime
Let soil shake tall bulidings
Let the politicians embarass their oath
Let God be a joke to the paying hypocrites
Let them see the world as it is with dumb joy thats highest among human philosphy
Let spirituality not  religion consume us
Let criminals realize society both raises them and imprisons them
Let the orphan realize parents can be cruel loving heads
Let food &water trick us to live the day with hidden ****  carried from past generations
Let  our ungreatful hearts burry us one day
and let me turn the pages of what is left to be said...

Cold hands means a warm heart
