HOME (An Animated Poem)
I wish I could be chillin’ In a forest full of friends No laws, no government No jobs, no school, no rent Just living free, climbing trees With old and young Feeling like we are one Not a day going by Without a smile and a laugh With friendship all around The closest friends on earth What shall we do today? Build a house or simply play Making things out of clay Following our own way Not forced into a corner Like rats in a cage Separated in our boxes Where we exist until old age I can only dream of a home But dreaming is where it starts My imagination is my weapon And my tools are the arts Somehow I will change my life And find the love I seek With friends who search for a new world too Because reality is looking bleak.
