Honest Living

I want to be making an honest living
Attaining my freedoms by righteous decisions
A healer a feeler of sorts
Empathy symphony aura the force
The deeper one digs the hotter it gets
The fire sustains the chimney of breath
As long as I live I keep it together
The earth and the magma is keeping me settled

I reflect this planet so It hurts when I see it damaged
Clear cutting of that forest empty pits where my heart is
Driving on these packed roads where the vegetation use to grow
The fragments of what are left
All the guts and splattered death yo
Repercussion for the man is dodged by the business plan
As long as making that money and stealing for business and corporate bodies
You are the problem but you are the source trapped in a void that destroys for growth
Blinded and hollowed compelled
By the choice the vices and verses is numbing are critical point

Being sold is construct
Leaving my people sluggish
Inability to process continuity of the nonsense
It's all so real
How advance we are but how little we deal
Peaking the future is fearful because we don't know how to act when we need to

I'm in need of my essentials
Nothing more but connection
Family and friends talking with people who get it releases my stresses
I'll ignore it if you ignore it too
Forgetful I'm working for freedom and youth
It's not about a collective it's a cut throat incentive
People want their piece of the pie
And would rather right their way with pride
We won't survive but we can thrive
The greed it kills by cutting our ties
Stubborn as hell we've become ill
Toxicity filled the vomit it seeds
Ingrained in the brain torrential it rains
The sadness is builds and builds

Flooding and flooding climate change
Flooding and flooding climate change
Flooding and flooding climate change
Flooding and flooding lets make a change

I want to make an honest living sustain myself without the killing
Harming and polluting why mutate with excuses
When abundance is in front of us
Covered up by a plain ass lawn
Covered up by a warehouse
Poisoned from the soil down
Chemical industries families comprised
Leaching of the groundwater
Health is our support line
Yea the price may be cheaper
But the real expense of nature
Won't be worth it when the world becomes uncertain from chasing paper

We can see within space molecules and elements
We have launched in space rockets and astronauts
Still there is a struggle of common everyday people
Going in with what is know and left to find our own sequel

I'm a human by chance knowledge is loud
Picking apart what's important
And leaving the bullshit out
If you want to make an honest living you have to fight to figure it out
The chances of debts the bombing on tests
The broken down cars short coming of rent
Own the self doubt yo
Own the self doubt yo
If you know what is right than you shouldn't even flinch though
I've broken bonds to find purpose
Confused at times that's no curtains
Time will rob you again and again
If you push it off you'll regret the dream
