Dead Serious

I am dead serious

Life is mysterious

*

All the while

We masquerade

But can’t advertise

If we negate

Their unbridled plans to be great

*

Like sand

time piles

into the hands of fate

Like dust

Our days will dissipate

We get confused

Yet we are great

I flash a smile

They hesitate

I dial into truth

But have to wait

*

We fight for love

And brush off hate

**

There is obvious fear in this

Folks are delirious

*

All the while

We commiserate

But can’t be allies

If we can’t communicate

The new tide rules

Let’s not stagnate

*

This land

Prime miles

We desecrate

For pure lust

Some days

Without debate

Life is abused

As we prorate

Then walk single file

Guiding

Our own fate

We strive for truth

Let’s mitigate

*

And for love of life

Anticipate!

**

We gauge the success

we have today

by the things we have

And how we’re paid

Seems that life

could be way better

With positive impact as

The only measure

*

Together could become

future-ready

To keep us alive

And keep us steady

Don’t say that these

ideas are all grandiose

We make more of a difference

if we aim for the most

Keep life happier

by preparing today

Not just for a select few

But for every one in every way

Seriously

Use logic

And put these angles into play

**

I am dead serious

Life is as clear as this

*

All the while

Investigate

Try not to criticize

We’re all the same

With one vital plan to be great

*

Coded strands

Time’s trials

Always decide our fate

Life must

Keep changing to integrate

We get to choose

What makes us great

Every last child

Has some same traits

No denial of the truth

Our lives equate

*

Let’s fight for love

And brush off hate

**

Oblivious we are near to this

Folks develop fearlessness 

*

All the while

Respect life’s state

We should be allies

We can cooperate 

If this new sky rules

Health proliferates

*

This land

Prime miles

We dedicate

To pure trust

Some days

With sound debate

Life is improved

Co-ordinate

Then exist with more style

Take pride in

Our shared fate

Faith and science find truth

Let’s propagate

*

And for love of life

Don’t be late

Don’t ever hate

Work out the details

Anticipate 

Deliberate

Concentrate

Then with some luck

and our hard work

we can find better ways

and reasons to

Celebrate today

**

I am dead serious
