Shades of Gray

ΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞΞ

I wish the world was black and white

But unfortunately we live in shades of Gray

More than 50, certainly

But it's difficult to see where morality falls on a spectrum

Quite simply, nothing is totally cut and dried

And for every law that seems just in one's eyes

In another place that law be changed for some to survive.



🍁










One side is hatred driven

The other side is hard to live in

Refusing to abandon the color of our skin....











🥀

Scientifically speaking we rise from the same kin

We really are the same, friends

Bleeding red as flame's kisses

Pull over the lever and see this thing skid

Quit bickering over something that doesn't exist,

Leave monuments alone it's history for our kids

To think we tear down the monuments that we fear

We fail to see why they are here

Listen closely and hear

Their to keep the past in the rear

And future clear.


Gun violence has dropped in the last thirty years,

Yeah their existence has doubled, on charts it appears

Logically speaking the thoughts in arrears

We're distracted and the road veers

Out of control

We fall in the hole

The same, as a whole

A nation of blending cultures










With this let's create something beautiful

And slay the vultures.
