If U Already Knew



Before we find love let us find grief
We can make it through the hurt and feel our peace
If at first we feel sadness
We will better rejoice in happiness
Before we find our destiny let us first accept our hell
Our founding fathers are liars
They made America hell
All our minds are locked in cages
Our souls are trapped in jail
There is no right and no left
It is a matter of heart or heartless
Perhaps it was a must for us to be crushed
If we all lived in a fairy tale
How could we ever be touched?
There has to be a place better than this, together
We are all suffering here, forever
God would not want this evil to exist, never
He is a brainiac, clever
Straight soldier, warrior
Vengeance, closure
Real love, unconditional

    You should be moving from silver to gold pretty soon. That's what I'm looking at.
