The Race

Full on sprint from point a to b
This is a race but I don't know who's winning
Moving so unbelievably fast
It leaves all our heads spinning 

We're all on different teams 
Represented by our groups colors
So focused on our own paths
We show very little concern for the others

Some Are hiding in the bushes
Waiting to throw a stick in the road
And some are wearing funky jackets
That are rigged to explode

Jumping over top of the ones who couldn't hang
Lying in the street dying from dehydration
Seems like everyone is dedicated
But only to their own situation

The finish line is in sight
But yet it always seems to be
But it seems like when we are about to cross 
It jumps a couple more feet

We are rats in a maze
In this race for eternity
Never coming together
Everyone is hung up on diversity
