The Seed

Every single thing I read making me upset Scrolling through my daily feed on the internet What is it that people need? How do we reset? We all grew from the same seed, but we all forget That everybody can connect, but instead of that We're private and we're separate, never overlap We walk around on the defense, are we holding back? What you give is what you get, and what we’ve got is Nothing, sitting in our bedrooms day and night, while we try To leave something beautiful behind How do we do that? Lock our doors and analyze, making notes and plans Then play it back a thousand times, 'til we understand Were beautiful with open eyes, live while you can But we're expected to create, on a strict routine While living in an office space, staring at a screen We miss out while we sit and wait, when we haven’t seen What the world will help us make, because we all have Something, calling us to bring it to the light, so we try To leave something beautiful behind
