We define ourselves by titles
Attach ourselves to the just cause
Oh how can he, how dare they
Is it because of me
Is it all on them
We rally with battle cries
But we wield no weapons
Just over saturated opinions
On why we're right
Why they're wrong
And who's to blame
Passion simply misplaced
Nothing changes, everything's the same
Hashtag revolution
It's not the crippled in me
It's the brokenness in you
You weren't born with a golden tooth
But you just consume
So when does the heart become less valuable
Less desirable, what gives it purpose, what gives it worth
So we blame the world and we teach our young
But can we have it both ways
To blame the divine and say we're only animals
Mother, Father
Gives us purpose
Teach us meaning
Give us worth
Mother, Father
Love your neighbor
The hypocrisy
The cure is the disease
The ego, we have it
The status, we want it
The protest, we march in
In a world that has given itself to self worship
There's nothing left
