Fire

Let them-lifes explosive surprises;daughter kicked out bc loves man of different skintone

Hot like the temper
Ready to explode
Just another tempo
To get on the road

It's out with water
He kicked her out of his house
Out like his daughter
Sticking to her spouse

Burning hearts but never surrender
To the one they love
and the one they differ
Stubborn they are, nose stuck above
just like the other

Minds will not change
Life will be difficult
Things won't be the same
It's all been deranged
It's all so strange
Used to be
Big to me
Now just belittles
From the smallest ego into bigotry

Hatred and prejudice all up in that volcano
Blowing up won't even do justice
It's going to kill everything in sight don'tcha know?
Black or white
But...
Beautiful new things will always grow
They bid adieu's to the old from the news
Creating room for the new to sow
So if and whenever eruption occurs
It will only inspire another
Justifying poetic match to
Set
on
Fire.
