Reality Check

The people scream
At the sight of death
Hello, reality check?
What did you think
That you could hide from it

The people laugh
At the sight of smiles
Hello, reality check?
People can fake
Anything these days

The people cry for more
At the sight of war
Hello, reality check?
Would you still raise your fist
If you were on the battlefield?

The people turn the other cheek
At the sight of the needy
Hello, reality check?
How would you feel
If you had nothing?

The people rejoice
At the sight of life
Hello, reality check?
No one mortal person
Lives forever

Hello reality check?
Come on
Did you think
You could stay away forever?

Come with me
Take my hand
Let us walk
Into reality
