As I look towards my left, I see vast water ever so blue
As I look to my right, I see each building for their names I have no clue
As I look towards the middle, I see cars of all makers
As I look closer, each car has their own objective all going at their own paces
Everything around us travels so fast
Everything makes you want to go faster so you wont finish last
I stare at the buildings that resemble corporate life and success
I remember the streets as people rush so they don’t make people upset
I remember my teachers tell me I have to keep up
I remember my parents tell me that I have to be good enough
The way our society builds itself is just like a boxing ring
Who can throw the best hooks to widen the gap to success
I don’t want this anymore
I want to be free
I want to take charge of my actions and not felt as if I need to flee
Forgive me as I go off track
Forgive me as I become the one who makes my own path
I see the the difference between nature and man made creation
But why do we complicate our lives with numbers and isolation
Look at the sunset beaming off of those buildings,
Shouldn’t you look and be gifted that you get to see this everyday?
Life is so beautiful you just need to stop and unwind
Hurry up and do so before society makes you go blind
