It's not easy though
being the face of a revolution
the things I see
on a daily basis
make me question
if this world is worth saving
and if I can help save it
from those who
look like me
but look to destroy
rather than help rebuild
how long do I keep fighting
there's just so much stupidity
so much willful ignorance
maybe I should just
stay focused on
my own personal growth
in hopes of inspiring
others to do the same
at least then it would
feel like there's hope
I shouldn't have expectations
they only mean to disappoint
and I've been disappointed before
probably will be again
is that reason enough to quit
not after all I've been through
but I have those moments
when I look to the sky
hoping the energy of
the universe still favors me
I really do hope so
because I need that
more than ever
it's exhausting down here
humanity is exhausting
