Human
Exploring the Depths of Humanity: John Driskell Hopkins' Insightful Reflections
Lyrics
Human
Being human
Thrown from the womb and
Entered the world at birth
Handed breath and life and illusion
Given the gift of life and the deceptive appearance of reality
Cry all you want to,
Express emotions freely
You’re still Human
Nevertheless, still human despite emotions
Human
Emphasizing the human condition
Pushed into a room and
Introduced into social environments
Handed a stack of friends
Given companionship, yet they are immature
Mere children
People who are young, inexperienced
In one building
Gathered in one place
Human
Continuing emphasis on humanity
Guided through schools and
Guided through educational systems
Handed one perfect chance for one perfect union
Given an opportunity for a perfect relationship
Sweet intrusion
A pleasant invasion or interruption
Everything you’ve ever loved in one human
Everything cherished within one individual
Human
Reiteration of humanity
Confronting our confusion
Facing the complexities of existence
Handing out our facets disguised as wisdom
Sharing various aspects, pretending they are wisdom
Flawed and welcomed
Imperfect but accepted
When all we ever really long for is freedom
Desire for liberation despite all
