Spent a span of my life
Working for the man
Didn’t like what I became
Had to quit, so I ran
We all must work
We work to live
But when we live to work
We can no longer give
We fill the hours, days, weeks…
Consuming our time
Prioritizing our values
In a cultural paradigm
Sharing your life
With the ones you love
The most precious gift
Given to those around us
My time in this life
Should demonstrate a devotion to present
Sharing our lives together
And to this I give my consent
When we misplace our attention
When we follow this decree
We miss out on a fellowship
Our friendship is absentee
And so I speak these words
And thus I proclaim
Do not waste your time alone
Take back a life to reclaim
