Illusion
I am bored
Living in a state of confusion
An illusion
Of a colored society
But in a black and white state
As my mind tries to create
Or at least make sense
Why we are the way we are
Claiming to be so close but in fact so far
Away from the concepts of life
Of reality
How apthy is the only religion that I see
And people are afraid to stand up for what they believe
As we decieve each other
Thinking you're my sister and brother
Then why when you see me you eyes run to the other
Concept
That we are at war with one another
Afraid to embrace because we put on a face
That we are one thing but in fact another place
Where we are intimidated by each other
And you want me to call you my sister and brother
What we need to realize is that our eyes should be on the prize
Freeing ourselves from being trapped within ourselves
To act instead of react
To crack our state of being
And believing
That we're not living in an illusion
Of a black and white state.
