Heart Knows

My heart knows
It just can't explain anything
It's mute to words,
Only action shows a person how I feel
Whether it's real love, this will determine
The feeling of flying high
Or sinking in pain,
Water runs off gutter pipes
Into cold concrete enveloping a
Dirty disposable face mask thrown away
And swallowed up by a drain

Blows cold from the north again
It shouldn't do that,
Never did it when I was kid
But I guess everything changed
When the game got kicked up into high octane
Devilish things in speech of every single
Pair of lips these days
Like overseas weeds being introduced to native terrain
Chocking flora, killing water
And fucking with the natural cycles of rain
I mean,
These systems divide and conquer
Can be stopped no longer,
I guess that we're all to blame
Technology is godly and the mother is under
I watch them always watching screens
Escape artistry like heroin fiends
Craving opiate bloodstreams
Man they'll do anything to stay inside
Their dreams

My heart knows
When the goodness of people begins to fade
And emptiness is on constant parade
And the mediocrity is celebrated
Along with the depraved,
The connection we used to have to each other
Is under attack
When most young kids are so far gone
They no longer function
Without some quick fix dopamine hack
And slip further from a place of spiritual growth
Unable to resist the traps
And the mature ones, the guardians
That are meant to protect them
Have all but devoured the earth
In some crazy competition
To acquire every single possible distraction
From their lack of moral tact
We left em nothing
So how the fuck they meant to act?
My heart knows,
But everywhere I go it seems I'm under attack
Like a sick military strike
On little kids and mothers, grandmothers
These brainwashed and soon to be PTSD soldiers
My heart knows its over
There's no future,
Its a consviscatory act
