Not A Kid Anymore


Walking down the stairs

Smells overwhelming

Sat down with ignorance

My plate full of innocence

They lived a happy life

Meant to be my sacrifice

 

Never questioning, mouth full of death

Numbing videos with no though

Coming across the truth 

Gruesome, my eyes filled with horror

One decision to make

 

Life or death

Wish I knew sooner 

Kids filled with ignorance

Now I am no longer

My choice was life

 

A new label called vegan

New title with knowledge

Questioning everything

Go against to support

 

One decision creates a ripple

Right or wrong I am growing

Knowledge is key 

I know now no one can take that away from me
