Lens
If my lens were connected to my heart you would see struggle
You would see the kids in Africa fighting for their next meal,
You would see Tsunamis taking out a community
If my lens could capture everything I see
Pages would turn forever,
Laws would change
If my lens had the power to change
People would feel vulnerable,
What was once right would be wrong
If my lens had the audacity to challenge
It will start a revolution,
It would lead people to a better life
If my lens froze a moment in time
Critics will point and laugh,
Believers will cower in shame
If my lens were human
It would see new canvas,
It would wish it were blind
If my lens were connected to my heart you would see pain
You would see red in asea of white,
You would see a loved one move on
If my lens were to show you the world
A shadow would hide half of it,
My face would still be stuck behind it
