Haven't you had enough?
Of being treated as a slave,
like a bat in a cave,
haven't you had enough?
of proclaiming that you are free,
when you are still caught up in a racism mystery,
haven't you had enough?
of drinking the nectar of Lucifer,
and running after the next him or her,
haven't you had enough?
of being brainwashed by the media,
dealing with oppresion and depression,
haven't you had enough?
of all this violence and unjust,
if you live awhile stuff will make you skeptical and you won't know who to trust,
haven't you had enough?
of one night stands and random sex because your life is a little bland,
of smokin black & milds and gettin so high that you adopt the actions of a child,
haven't you had enough?
of not reading through the lines,
laborin in darkness and not sunshine,
refusing to conceptualize that now is the time,
haven't you had enough?
-KJ

We the People of the United States,
have forgotten how to be kind and relate,
ignore all the chaos that devastates,
We the People of the United States,
spit out love and eat hate,
destroy instead of create,
We the People of the United States
-KJ

Life has many parts, haven't you had enough of some of yours?
