Who We Are

Our world is covered in a mask of prosthetic whitening and fashionable clothes.
What has happened to society?
Where are the real people?
Where are the people that knew of things passed down through generations of their families.
Where are the ones that care about family?
Instead of sitting around the fire
People are going to the pubs and bars.
Instead of growing up as a virtuous woman,
We learn to grow up in the ways of the world.
We are no longer judged for who we are,
But for how well we cover it up.
What happened to the people who cared about one another?
Now we are like robots in a course to our own destruction.
Turn around and look at the world through the eyes of one who lived before.
Go back to the standards set years ago.
Be you and stop covering it up,
Because at the end of the day,
You will be the one who stays strong,
And leads the way to a better future.
Stop worrying about how you can cover up your soul,
Let it be free,
Let it run wild with you,
And,
Love God,
Love Man,
And be happy with who you were made to be,


Because you are you!
