stream of consciousness is the only way I think

Universal healthcare,
Human welfare,
Happiness is what you make of life

Muslims pray every day,
Some of us think that’s not OK,
But who are we to say,
we “know what’s right” to believe in.

The media never seems to stop screaming in our ears,
The man won’t stop capitalizing on our fears,
What do you believe in?

Was it something you were told?
While you were young-
And the message was old-
Are all things created equally?

Take a river ride down the stream of consciousness,
Surf the wave of thoughts and feelings,
Believing-

The weak cry when tensions run high,
Do you fear for your life?
What makes any day different from the rest?
What’s the difference between the better and the best?
No pain without pleasure, pleasure without pain
Hard to gain with no loss or lose with no gain,

You’re living on a scale of infinite proportion.
You’re living on a scale for free,
The stakes are high-
And your thoughts might feel dry-
But still,
You’re compelled to try to know exactly why.

Push on forward,
Yes we can,
Push on push on as hard as you can,

What’s love is right and what’s hate is wrong,
But both are part of life’s circular song,

Relax and believe,
Create and relate,
Bridging gaps among people can destroy all the hate,
Identity remembers and thinks with your head,
Because no know what happens right after your dead.
