What does it take for movement to engage
What experience must you face to speak
What event will occur to force change
What will you do to prevent the break

So much want, with little pursuit
So much need, with little giving
So much crime, with little truth
So much passion, with little loving

Not to mention the elements of disgust
The elements of pure lust
The elements of tragic behavior
The elements leading many into danger

The fact of the matter is people feel helpless
Get down and behind before even trying regardless
Afraid of the unknown despite wanting to make a difference
Giving in to the fear that creates all of these fences

It’s hard to jump without a leap
It’s hard to breathe without a breath
It’s hard to test without a trial
It’s hard to overcome denial without a smile
