always forget the names 
but remember the faces 
sorry i forgot your name
care more what you gotta say 
better yet the feelin you convey 
we all writing our own stories 
others lives we’re just thumbin through the pages 
we’re all comin from different places 
i wanna come with you 
see from another view 
Let’s write each other in 
a new chapter
but love from within 
is what we’re all after 
and love from without 
like blood from the mouth 
gush when you speak 
they say nothing is free 
but love is free 
everything expensive these days 
we pay in different ways
but it don’t come from a transactional place 
and i aint after the same things 
they seem to be after 
but we all wanna be loved 
we all wanna be safe 
and able to articulate
what we wanna say 
concealing the truth 
got you feelin like a mute 
feelin like what can you do 
that aint nothing new 
somethin we all gotta fight through 
or at least try to
they aint tryna give ya food 
for thought 
they think your mind’s food 
tryna prey upon it 
it’s a scam like Reaganomics
it’s blatantly obvious 
too broke for payin homage 
put your brain under the faucet 
for them to wash it 
with their propaganda
