The Charlatan

I can't be mad...
no, I can't be
mad...
that you use people
for your own private
playground
and when you are confronted
you are busying...
and journeying...
and don't want to be held accountable
and i know that talk is talk because I talk too
and doing and being are different than speaking
showing, and not saying, what is known is louder (modeling)
than words spoken into ten megaphones
and what makes this true is you
and your example
my example
and their example
and no, you can't keep using people
master-baiting with them
and yes we are all accountable for ourselves
but why does it always seem that everyone else is 'cept you
No, I don't want nothing
and no, I ain't mad
and no, I ain't sad
See my only expectation is to expect you to be you
and so far, ...so far, ...so far
you've lived up to it
Don't let every good that you do be cancelled out by you
Just like one plus one equals two
one minus one equals none
what is there left to prove?
what point is there to make?
There is much responsibility given
and much responsibility spoken of,
but there is little in the way of taking...responsibility.
We are no higher than the lowest one of us
why? because we are all connected
The day you disconnect is the day
that you seal you fate of loneliness
and is that what this is all about?
Illusory bonds that can never be broken because they were never formed?
Stop speaking and listen
listen
listen
listen
There are expectations in every relationships
To say you have no expectation of another,
is to say you have no relationship with them.
To say you have no expectation of another is to say I want to be left alone...
We seal our fates!
and we proceed to the next level
the next phase...if we lucky.
Don't miss out on the lesson of relating
and integrity...
Selfish donations don't make us humanitarians
Preaching don't make us holy!
