You reap what you sow
You receive what you reciprocate
Stuck in a stalemate, unable to escape
Your innate nature is to restate but you can’t
You reap what you sow
You receive what you reciprocate
Captivated by your deceiving activities
You try to redo, to recreate, to rewrite but you can’t
You reap what you sow
You receive what you reciprocate
Weary and worried, you watch your back
You wish for your worries to waft away but you can’t
You reap what you sow
You receive what you reciprocate
Fueled by your affluence, you flee for freedom
You fight to uphold your facade but you can’t
You reap what you sow
You receive what you reciprocate
Eye for an eye, you’re eager to deny it
You’re dying to retry and rewind, but you can’t
You reap what you sow
You receive what you reciprocate
You want to take everything back
But you can’t
Your actions assault and abuse us
Your words wound and weaken us
Your injustices injure and impair us
You want justice? Redemption?
You want to amend? To heal?
You want, and you want, and you want
But you can’t
