Who We are
Who we are...
What we are...
A truth that don’t know no boundaries,
Like men and women, yin and yang,
Two sides of a worn-out coin.
Life’s a tangle of contradictions,
Threats of fights,
And the long haul of letting go,
Learning to bend without breaking.
But hell, we’re human—
Homo sapiens,
Dust on this blue rock called Earth.
Who the hell are we?
Why do the differences run so deep—
In the way we love,
In the way we fight?
Still, there’s something that cuts through it all,
Something bigger than you or me,
A LifeForce that don’t ask questions,
Just keeps us moving,
Like a whisper you can’t quite catch.
Yeah, it’s a hint of an answer,
Never shouted loud,
But it’s the reason we’re still here.
Who we are...
What we are...
And who we share this road with.
