You can tell me I don’t have a good life
Got no fancy car or perfect wife
You can say I’m not educated
Read a book once or twice
You can say I’m living in squalor and shite
Rubble and concrete my playground of choice
You say I despise your idea of God
These differences don’t make us men or mice
Only love is love
And only we can love
For love is all
And we are love
Tell me something I don’t know
About your world and how you live
I guess it’s all like a TV show
Full of sunshine and teeth so white
Constant news keeping you in fear
Electronic screens to dream your dreams
And chemical trails like a glass tear
Falling on a soulless meme
Take it back
A simple push
No heart attack
Let fear be crushed
