Questions

by Young Black Male - Cancer

what is wrong? what is right?
what is dark? what is light?
what does it mean to be blind?
what does it mean to have perfect sight?


beleive nothing that you hear
and half of what you see
thats what someone once told me
at a glance I see one of you
but when I look closer I can see two
now comes the hard part 
witch one should I trust 
its a hard choice 
but to choose i must 
they both look the same 
but they play a different game 
what is wrong? what is right?

I heard someone say 
what you do in dark shall come to light 
so I thought 
you cant see at night 
but sometimes 
the sun blinds 
if it shines just right
what is dark? what is light?

I once saw a blind man cross the street
I watched as he moved swiftly 
across the concrete 
he made it and went on his way 
but later that same day
I saw a man running with his eyes wide 
in a hurry to get to the other side 
I couldnt watch as a car 
and the mans body colide
I close my eyes 
as the man dies
I thought about it all that night 
what does it mean to be blind?
what does it mean to have perfect sight?
