beyond being

I'm sitting here full of pain as i watch people slain

Around the world, it's all the same

People die, People cry

People buried alive

 

We all see, we all know

But we block it from our souls

 

Flat screens, computer dreams

Nights of drunken streams

Has become our only goals in a world

tearing through it's seams

 

Money, power, pretty things

will not enlighten your spirit to the real being of your soul

You will never know

Never grow

Never be part of anything more than this flesh of growing old

 

There is more beyond this life

But we will never know

For this life is where we cling tight

Trapped by our own means inside a world we created

Beyond any meaning of our true being

It's so true, the world acts like it's oblivious to all the acts of violence. Instead, they drown themselves in the media. Great write!
