People bumping off of people
never real time for themselves
Thoughts consumed with what the other thinks
defined by someone else
Competition in their nature
a little more than the rest
A thought to decide for themselves
shot down by the next
They go on believing they’ve won the race
to find another mile around the bend
Running ahead of the next
to draw up a finish line for them
We care so much for those like us
then throw them in the fire
People and their selfishness
the only true desire
Teaching and preaching
Listen because you’re lesser than
Never honest things for ourselves
Such a marvelous plan
