So many messed up people gettin' round
Stories in their heads spinning round
Learned manipulation lies and fabrications
No solid foundation to be found
Our kinships and out totems are long gone
Communities were broken long ago
No tribes to give us guidance no elders to rely on
Hoping to learn all we need to know
Here we are just goin' it alone
Tryna find some answers in the phone
So much information and bullshit confirmations
Confusing the young mind as it grows
Where to now? So many feet so far from the ground
If you find something to ground you a deeper love to cling to
There'll be nothing of more value to be found
Now I sit here with cancer in my blood
And I feel like it's time to unplug
The world has gone crazy it's true we ain't just sayin'
And I need a place to step off
Family's are fighting left and right, blocking each other from their lives
Public humiliation and digital defamation
Are now just an everyday part of life
There was a time when we thought there'd be no more wars
That a path of peace was the only way forward
But we are dropping bombs on babies
Projecting fear daily
It feels like the whole things gunna burst
Youth suicide is always on the rise
Social media is messing with young minds
And the big fat corporations are sittin' back makin' gravy
And the broken hearts they never saw the signs
Help me now, I tried to speak but nothing comes out
My mind is going crazy these dark thoughts with me daily
And don't really see another way out
Where to now? So many feet so far from the ground
If you find something to ground you a deeper love to cling to
There'll be nothing of more value to be found
