The Issue
February 26, 2009
The Issue
People act like it doesn't even exist,
but when they have to face it they throw a fit.
They run and hide from it day and night.
Then wonder why they never see true light.
They say that they want to be known,
but they won't deal with the issue that is being shown.
They keep saying that they want to grow,
but why they can't they will never know.
They exist, not live, with depression and strife,
'cause they won't deal with the issue of life.
