We have no idea what the future may hold
we tell ourselves, in an attempt to be bold.
A way to avoid thinking it all through
and acknowledging what we know is true.
The future is no ninja in the night
It tells us over and over what’s right.
Just look to the past as a prologue
in order to see through the fog.
The fog we claim as our own is easier
than clarity of the image in the mirror.
We can say the future is unknown
but true intents have long been shown.
It’s no ninja in the night, it is right here
in broad daylight transparent and clear.
Ignorance is no excuse, we know who we are,
choose to fight, or meekly wear a yellow star.
Wakeup, the future is abundantly clear
and the danger very present and near.
