no.

i need to feel it all

i need to see it all

mothers singing to their babies

their babies being taken

humans being deported 

to a land they have never known

prisoners being used for money

i need to see to know

broken people becoming predators

not breaking the cycle 

how would they know how

rapists buying their way out of prison

walk out a free man

can go and torture some more 

1-4 grams could get you 20 years though

father just trying to provide for 

his little girl 

a mother taking night classes 

just trying to provide

I Want To See

people using other people

out of desperation and lonliness

hearts broken 

wedding vows stolen

husbands killed

wives killed 

brothers killed

sisters killed

children killed

HUMANS KILLED

by who?

others 

other humans 

i need to see to know it's real

we need to see 

we need to feel 

we need to change

to make it real.
