Favorite Quote:
“danger is real but fear is a choice.”<br /> - Will Smith


Blood walks through the money of the riches

The tears and sweat of the poor

Fills the lakes and rivers some more

They're greedy minds

Are what kills the people underneath

They plan to kill their time

As they unsheath the bloody blade to kill it

The people below are like puppets

They are replaceable 

They go through the same routine

And become mindless humans

Until they have someone to break them free

They only have one goal

That is to survive


But there is hope

But only from above

An emotion almost lost and forgotten

An emotion you almost lose when your at the top

And that is Empathy

People from the top allows the bottom feeders to be fed

Because empathy allows them to see the sun again

Empathy is our savior

It holds a golden blade

Ready to fight anyone in its way

Empathy allows everyone to shine

Empathy Blinds the people who try to kill their time

There is hope for empathy to shine

And for greed to say goodbye
