syd and the talking soapheads


Close the wealth inequality gap

Educate the people and give them clean water,

     food, housing, and stable employment.

Help the people who cry out loud

Free the ghettos of an oppressed crowd

No more room for elitism

     now we fight, fight, fight

Acceptance and unity

     the only right, right, right

Path to a peaceful Earth

Roasting marshmallows over a hearth in Pennsylvania

With my cousins in our Disney themed pajamas

Youth and nostalgia flood my chest, a vessel for polar moods

My aunts parade the carpeted halls, gossping about childhood mischievery

I'm Matilda

I'm Willy Wonka

I'm here for a greater calling

onset by curiosity

It's the lottery of birth
