The purpose of our lives is never clear
A long time ago
Bonds formed an experiment that we know as, humanity
I've thought how, possibly, our ancestors rested more than we do
If that were so, we would have died out
A long time ago
Though there's a difference between burning out and working hard
We know they strove to improve things
Thought the definition of what those things are has changed
That urge, to better ourselves, has always been there
and many tales warned against laziness, greed and corruption
It is not hard to find examples of exploitation throughout history
humanity has always been, complex
Ancient texts confirm this
and yet we ask, why we are here, what is the point?
It has always been simple, to those who value people over power
Authenticity, though a buzz word now, is still a concept I believe in
To find simple things, that bring me joy
To have the time to enjoy them
and a heart open
though there's reason for it to be closed
This is the essence of life
Simplicity
and life go hand in hand
