Seen It, Mean It, Been It

Caught between the sea of freedom
Struggling for life on the edge of reasons
Sinking further into depths of debt
Bills, thrills, ice cold ills
Children running wild in concrete caverns
Burrowing deeper down and still
Waiting, praying, television fed
Up, down, in and around your head
moaning, groaning young girls wed.
Slavery, bravery, condition led.
Youths, truths, when will you choose?
Religious guides, loose alibis.
Scrolls, trolls and ruined souls
sniggering, glittering desperately
trying, grinding poverty.
Soldiers, movie makers and trend shakers.
Save us, betray us, the hippy bus
Take me, bathe me, set me free.
Subject, abject, an alien reject
Wandering, pondering, thinking about thinking.
Made me, played me, no need to pray for me.
Hired, fired, brain re-wired
Debauchery, flaunting mentality
Naked, dated, testimony
Always longing for something or someone to belong.
Slated, grated, always belated.
Time stops if your batteries are old.
An illusion like a heavenly body
Gods, heroes, heroine and zeros
Plagued by division and all that separates us, it's in our minds.
Open up and see your truths
Let go of your tormented youth.
Seen It, Mean It, Been It!
