"In The Name of Greed"

 
Broken promises
And broken bottles.
Dreams shattered;
Our hopes toppled.
Nonstop fighting
No backing down.
Against the wall;
On the cold ground.
Emptied casings
Filling up morgues.
Their blood money
Paying out rewards.
All to push product
Flooding the streets.
Our future generation
Under those sheets.
Our cries ignored
By crooked cops.
Senseless killings
They will never stop.
Blood stained alleys
In the name of greed.
We will always rally
Until we are freed.

"Exposed"

 Lost in their eyes.
Seeing their soul.
A beating heart 
Totally exposed.
Words of passion
Igniting the flames.
Unbridled feelings 
No longer contained.
Our shadowy past
Revealed in the light.
Hopes of our future 
Now shining bright.
A dangerous dance
Entwining our souls.
One wrong misstep;
Leaves us in the cold.
Uncharted territory 
Guided by our hearts.
Serenity In our souls
As our new lives start.

"A Return"

 A return to innocence.
Shedding of our scars.
Tearing down our walls
Drifting amongst the stars.
A heart full of turmoil
We hide behind masks.
Uncertainty controlling 
Memories of the past.
Always seeking serenity 
In the middle of chaos.
Wandering in the dark
For a paradise now lost.
Holding the dying embers
Of peace and tranquility.
Our dreams left exposed
To our souls vulnerability.
As we return to an innocence
We once held in our hearts.
As we float amongst the stars
Vowing to never to drift apart.
