"Why does Momma cry ?"
asked a child so ignorant.
"It owes to her ill-health",
replied the adult, so witful.
The truth hidden beneath -
none but her ill-fate of,
being objectified by her partner

"Why does he walk like a girl ?"
"Why does he talk like a girl ?"
"Why does she walk like a boy ?"
"Why does she talk like a boy ?"
"He is a boy, he is a girl, as you are" -
came the reply, the truth hidden beneath.
They are bisexual, they are transgender,
genders as normal as others -
the truth hidden beneath

"Strive hard, only and always succeed",
the ignorant child was compelled.
"Failures lead you to success,
failures, as normal as success" -
the truth hidden beneath

The list goes on, on and on,
of the truths hidden from us.
The list goes on, on and on,
of truths we were turned ignorant towards.
The list goes on, on and on,
of issues, long to be addressed

Rise Up, Act and React,
for the world relies on you.
Defeat and burn the pineworms,
crippling the humans, crippling the world

RISE UP, ACT AND REACT
