TRUTH

by Jay Colon   Jun 4, 2016


Truth is hard or cold
It could be good or bad
It could be painful
Even more cruel than a lie

But it is absolute
It can set you free

With truth there is no burden
Nothing to weigh you down
With truth it can give you happiness

Whether if it's with friends
Or helping someone dreams come true
Or feeling hope renewed

You never know how fleeting happiness can be
Just dont take it for granted
Life is too short

Youll never notice
Someday is today
Then someday can mean yesterday

People will hate
They will divide
Not every morning the sun shines the same
Not every night is pure darkness

You'll see stars
In those stars
every single one of us can be

The lion with a loud roar
The wolf in a pack
The army in formation

No one going to war
We can be one
Everyone standing tall

Putting the weapons down
No more killing
No punches be thrown
No more fighting

No petty outburst
No more bullying
No more violence

Let the truth be the truth
not be hidden behind a lie
Let the truth have no secrets

So we can begin with this generation
Start with 2016
We can set the violence free

As long as we all continue

Putting the weapons down
No more killing
No punches be thrown
No more fighting

No petty outburst
No more bullying
No more violence

Lets stand tall
Lets be the army of one
lets break the cycle
Set our families free

Our ancestors
Our great grandparents
Our mothers and fathers

Our aunts uncles
Our sons and daughters
Most importantly our grand children and their children

Lets be happy
Let be united
Lets stand by faith
Lets stand with the truth
Truth that no matter the skin
No matter the nationality
That we are all family

Let break the silence
Lets stop the violence
