Ode to 2

It’s a world of people

In motion all around

Some living their best

Some stuck in despair

So why oh why

Is it not enough

The love the attention

To go all round?

When someone truly sees you

Knows who you are

You feel so loved cared for

Everything you are

You mean something

You ain’t nothing

Blessed be this world

They call loneliness a pandemic

Just as bad as COVID

Yeah meaning nothing to nobody

Life’s a terrible parody

Who said Friends is cool

It’s just a load of bull

In a world of division

We’re surrounded by darkness

All seems so meaningless

I don’t wanna play this game… no!

But when we join our hands

Unity… camaraderie… power

Divided we’re weak

United we’re invincible

And what is that oh principle

If not a call to serve?

Oh give me your hand

I’ll give you what I can

Peace and harmony

Love and prosperity

Yeah sometimes I may give too much

But when our hands are joined so what

What I give I will receive

Cause everybody’s sharing anyway

Again… what makes the world go round?
