austin alchemy - why (spoken word) lyrics
why?
that’s the question i ask
why is it we don’t do what it takes
to inspire others in a positive way?
why is it we limit our power and potential
just because we’re afraid?
why do we live blindly to the truth around us?
why don’t we look past the veil
and see the beauty that surrounds us?
what i’m really saying is
why do we so strongly believe in a world
where life is up and then it’s down?
where one day we smile, the next we frown?
why do we think this is what life is all about?
why do we find more joy in k!lling than we do healing?
why is it we aren’t willing to begin fulfilling
our mission and start building
a society based on everyone’s well being?
why do we live in a world where we
desire things but can’t afford it?
why are we afraid of change and yet we ask for it?
why is it we want honesty shown toward us
but stuff truth in our secret storage?
why is it ok to work for businesses
that work their employees like they’re a slave?
and why don’t we do something to shift the system
instead of being more concerned about getting paid?
why do we support corporations that oppress
condemn others who we see as wrong
and yet see the corporation as just?
why don’t people see how corporations benefit
off of the misery of others?
why don’t we as people do something
to benefit our sisters and brothers?
why do people invest their wellness
into an industry that makes money off of people’s illness?
pump people full of pills
till they slowly k!ll
for them, just another day of business
as your money and body is what they steal
why do we vote for a system that has proven to be outdated?
and why do we still vote for these politicians
thinking it will bring about all sorts of change
only to have been mistaken?
really, why vote for the lesser of two evils
when both are still evil?
yes voting can bring about solutions
but a corrupt system uses voting to deceive you
it’s full of illusions
why do we have to work to survive
when we have enough resources to live
without having to k!ll ourselves to get by?
why do we have a banking system
that makes money off of our debt?
why is we don’t do anything but be slaves for a system
that’s takes till we have nothing left?
why is it we never question the official story
the government and media tell us?
why is it we believe in their tales
after they have shown to routinely fail us?
why is it we allow others to abuse us
and fall victim to fear, anger and doubt?
why act like you are not powerful enough
to stand your ground and be proud?
you think it’s ok to be beat around and put down?
why is it we live in a culture that lives off of drama?
why is it we live in a culture that thinks fear will make us stronger?
why live declaring peace is weak as your mantra?
all it will do is haunt ya
but really, really why is it we have access
to more resources than anytime in history
yet we’re told we have a lack of resources
like water, food, shelter
yeah, something is missing
do you think the education you were taught
in school was meant for you to live in the world?
ever wonder why when you’re an adult
it’s like you can barely survive in the world?
why do think schools don’t teach you
the in depth information on how banks work?
because if people really knew the truth
the banks would be outta work
wait, then again, the banking system
has shown that it’s disloyal
so why, why do we invest our money
into these big banks and act like their royal?
are they really that too big too fail?
because they already have and still
yeah, why aren’t we taught how to be creative?
why aren’t we taught how to truly make it?
say it’s the parents job for the child
to learn all those kind of essentials?
if that’s the case then why h+ll do we even go to school?
we seriously must be mental
why is it we believe in a religion
that excludes and upholds the idea of sin?
why is it ok to take power away from women
and strictly give it to men?
in other words, why support a religion
that says it’s about truth and love
but when it comes down to it
it’s more about how much power can be won?
and seriously, i gotta ask why though
do people think that god can be loving but also vengeful?
why add the human like qualities to a higher consciousness
to justify your own insanity?
talk about sinful
why is it people exclaim not to worship idols
but when it comes to their religion they uphold their idol?
why is it people hang their idol based in an image of suffering?
i doubt these people would create shrines
of their child being crucified
so why is another thing seen as terribly sickening
and the other a ritual when they’re both beyond discomforting?
why man…why?
why is the air polluted and poisoned daily?
why is our food contaminated with chemicals?
why do we still got people living in poverty? i thought we were advanced
why do we got police brutality?
why do we got corruption in the government?
why do we work for money and not work from the heart?
why do we live in fear?
why don’t we live a life of truth?
why don’t we demonstrate love?
why don’t we be the change we seek?
why don’t we, why don’t we just be?
