Open your eyes


Open your eyes incredible being, open your mind.

Realize that what you are seeing, is causing you to be blind.

Social media has become your God, has become your life.

Kindness and love have become so odd, only chaos and strife.

It is time to make  a difference, time to become the change.

Be the generation that has wounds but has Gained.

Gained Victory for the oppressed. 

For those they detest , just for being different. 

skin and  hair , mentally Unaware 

of the damage , that soon become habits. 

Ignorance to Trauma from all the drama of life. 

Thats got that once good man , beating on his wife. 

Lets make a change , let’s take a stand

Make a greater effort to try to understand. 

Thank you.
