WE

I am living on this Earth, along with all the rest

of you

When you're feeling down,

I can't help but be sad too.

when my life is upside down,

i am sure you're affected by me too.

It isn't until today

that I realize,

if you're bad, so am I

if someone killed

it's like I did it too

if we're all part of this world

then

what you did is what I do though I may hate you

despise you

wish you dead

undoubtly

our relationship rings true

not a relation of love

nor trust

but a relationship

indeed it is

we're all related

i hope you know

for when you kill

lie

cheat

steal

murder

i become part of the scheme

i wish not

but until you come with me

together hands in hands

i shall not,

go to heaven

without you you're

part of me
