We all know

Latest

We all know it takes a whole lot of wildness
For pain to gain and conquer the mind
To keep it thoughtless
Throughout its time
Of living
It’s best to stay expressive than to hold in
We know the path our roots the inconvenient
So why trash the gift given
From Ancestors to give
To generations like this
That live in foul conditions
They set stones so we can rise
Forward and not behind
To live unblind
David Tojin aka Astrow
