Inconsistencies

There are some things in this world
That can't be explained
Life's little inconsistencies 
That seems to plague us 
Sometimes it can feel like
The world is upside down
It can get easy to get caught up
Living in inconsistencies
Moving away from the reality
Living our lives backwards
Not really understanding
Exactly where we are supposed to be
But when you start to line yourself up
And once you start to understand
That life shouldn't be forfeit for pride
For greed
For power
For personal gain
Out of anger
Out of fear
Out of ignorance
People are living lost
Moving backwards
From where they should be
Harming themselves
And often others in the process
But we must learn to live in reality
And step away from the inconsistencies
That cloud us from where we should be
