Deep down within my inner space I am the same as you: I've counted since that fire burnt the many lessons I have learnt. YOU have to talk to me and not the Skin that holds me in. I took the wisdom that I 90t to make sure I would Win: I'm counting weaker folk than me Who 100k but truly cannot see. I've seen compassion from the blind Who think With Open eyes, It's those that Judge me quick YOU'Il find are those that are unwise: Why Judge the face that I have on JUSt Value my opinion. checked on rhetorical styles Friends will come and friends will 90, now I need friends who feel My friends have changed so much and So. I make sure they are real: I took the ride and paid the price. I can't afford to do that twice. I came to here from ignorance I cannot call it bliss. and now I know the importance Of loving me like this: TO leave behind that backward State Of Judging 100kS is very great I'm beautiful. I'm beautiful this minor fact I know. I tell you it's incredible near death has made me grow: LOOK at me, smile, you are now seeing a great thing called a human being. What if If you can keep your money when governments about you. Are losing theirs and blaming it on you. If you can trust your neighbour when they trust not you And they be very nosy too: If you can await the warm delights Of Summer Then summer comes and goes with Sun not seen, And Pay so much for drinking water Knowing that the water is unclean. If You Seek Peace in times of war creation. And you can see that oll merchants are to blame. If you can meet a Pimp or politician. And treat those two impostors Just the same: If you cannot bear dis-united nations And you think this new world order is a trick, If you've ever tried to build 900d race relations. And watch bad POlicing mess your work UP quick. If you can make one heap of all your savings And risk buying a small house and Plot, Then Sit back and watch the economy inflating Then have to deal with the negative equality you've 90t If you can force your mind and body to continue When all the social services have gone, If you Struggle on when there is nothing in you, EXCEPt the knowledge that Justice can be wrong. If you can Speak the truth to common People or walk with Kings and Queens and live no lie. If you can see how Power can be evil And know that every censor is a SPY: If you can fill an unforgiving lifetime With years of working hard to make ends meet.
