we
we’re eating ourselves alive
we’re eating ourselves to death, aren’t we?
we being humanity, that is
we’re over-consuming consumption
we’re taking and taking and taking more
we the people, that is
we’re progressing without progress
we’re advancing without advancement
we have everything, yet we have nothing
we say we care
do we?
we say we’re free
are we?
we say we can do anything
can we?
who are we?
who were we?
who will be we?
we?
we have a lot of words
we don’t have a lot of actions
we put on a show
we don’t do and go
we take sides
but how can we be split?
when we is all of us?
if we is not all of us
then it isn’t we
then all of us aren’t we
how can that be?
for us and we
to exist separately
when we and we are together eternally?
we are controlled
we are led
we are exploited
we are tricked
we are grifted
we are destroyed
but we are all we
therefore; we control… we
therefore; we lead… we
therefore; we exploit… we
therefore; we trick… we
therefore; we grift… we
therefore; we destroy… we
how can we exist outside of we
when we is everybody?
those who aren’t we
cannot be
for all of us are we
we hurting we
we are hurt by we
individually?
but we are we
outside the we
we’re nobody
we cannot be
outside of we
must this be the way of we?
to self-mutilate eternally?
to destroy entirely?
death will come for you
death will come for me
but must death come to we?
by our own hand, must this be?
the fate of we?
assuredly?
there simply has to be
another way to be we
we against we
will only end, can only end with we
becoming nobody
when there’s nobody
left to be we
not you
not me
not anybody
left to be we
we, isn’t just humanity
all of life is we
the bird and the bee
the herd and the tree
are all part of we
the miracle of life is we
we are part of that miracle
we being the life that lives today
owes our existence to the lives of yesterday
the we of the present only came about because of the we of the past
the we of the future can only come about because of the we of the present
we are all we
stretching across eternity
we must learn to be
in harmony
with we
or we
will cease to be
there is another way to be
than what is told to we by we
and that is to be as we
in order to be we
we must be we
not they or them or me
not you or he or she
we must be we in order to be
or we will cease to be
what sadder fate could there be
than for we to not be we?
for if we cease to be
all that’s left will be nobody
if we keep on killing
we are killing we
if we keep on polluting
we are polluting we
if we keep on thieving
we are thieving we
if we keep on deceiving
we are deceiving we
then there will be no more we
no more we for eternity
a house divided against itself cannot stand
we shall cease to be
if we divide and conquer we
but we can be a better we
if we see what we do to we
and stop it
eternally
no more you
no more me
no more they, them, he, or she
but we
we! can do it
we can be we
if only we open our eyes to see
the we
we were meant to be
