Competing for space
These are not rumours
People, we are all guilty of this
crime against humanity
These manufactured reality has
poisoned us
Now, we are trampling on each other
We are competing for space
Inside the house of success
It is not impossible to break away
from this mentality
And unlearn these toxic habits
To erase all the lessons of
'survival of the fittest'
And maybe learn to work together
To address each other's needs
And undress our common purpose
Life is not kindergarten
There are no puppets
We have to respect each other
Treat each other with dignity
And embrace each other's
imperfections
We have to be compassionate
When dealing with each other
Let us love one another
