"The Undeniable Something"

If you never stand for anything, why ever do you bother to breathe?

As harsh as that may sound, for SOMETHING everyone bleeds

Whether it be of grandeur or whether it be called “quaint”

Don’t waste your life drawing at straws, ’cause believe me: I ain’t

In the innards of every man and woman a metaphorical bird chirps

A lament of distress and when ignored, your souldrums may eventually burst

See, the wailing is but a signal to allow you to know

And recognize that there’s something that you MUST do

Before it is your time to go
