Change

Excuse me, but I haven't been very honest lately

I keep telling humanity that I want to change the world,

but I have yet to do so

because I have this beau in my eye that lets me know

when it is time and right now is not the time

so I'm thinking that these thoughts in my mind should just subside.

But a great man once said, "Be the change you want to be in the world."

As in, "Change yourself, then show them the way."

But internally I haven't felt very changed.

I haven't been playing my part in this production

I speak for love and affection

but I act with harsh words and vague representations

of things that are actually not that hard to represent.

My mind is being logical but my body is sentimental.

"I am just a man with a heart and sinful hands"

but I won't play the victim.

I am the culprit.

I am made of concrete and shall not be moved.

My body has taken shape and this is all you have left of me

and the heart in me is one full of malice and greed,

an amount that no eye has ever seen. But my God,

He says He knows the plans that He has made for me.

Plans to grow me up and make me strong

but why do I feel weak and full of doubt if these where the plans all along?

"The plays the thing wherein I'll catch the conscience of the king."

We all have parts to play, but

have we studied our lines?
