Got Soul

Though the constants beat down of life takes it toll
you ain't got no life in you don't have a soul
just like the American trying to find his role
searching endlessly, cause you have lost your soul
and with it, you have lost your essence
you can get it back through prayer or by seeking reverence
through your journey of life's lesson
without your soul, you have lost your foundation
that was blessed to you stemming back from the creation
of time
just like constructing a building on sand
you cant create an identity based on society's demand
for you will sink to depths
that only a nightmare can manifest
how many souls can you count down below
how dark does it get when stuck in a whole
society that is always cold
but never shows to show
the rain of tears, fears and jeers
once they realize they cant buy it or steal
always unable to decipher the consequences of what's real
instead of pretending to what they think is the deal
just like a house is not a home
a spirit is not a soul if it can not roam
mentally and emotionally moving
like electrons transferring energy and flowing
to a charge more positive
like good motives
my soul
is like a balancing pole
always keeping me spiritually in control
for I slide on
while you skid down the sliding board
to drawn on your on accord
got soul?
