Grano Salis

Know where you’ve been
Know where you’re going
The danger of ignorance
Time again has been proven

History speaks loudly
The truth is unheard
See for yourself
Uncover the absurd

A fly on the wall
An ear to the wind
Keep your curiosity
Never easily convinced

A story is just a story
According to a source
Seeking out the root
Is still a greater force

Of power, of justice
Of identity
Of knowledge, of truth
Of transparency

Too many have fallen
Victim to not knowing
Indifference and complacency
Content with mediocrity

Who sets the records?
Whose tale is retold?
Those who make the effort
Those who make their mold

Pull back the curtains
Of the status quo
Be enlightened in all matters
Know what you must know

To the generation that follows
Be a witness to the past
A hope for tomorrow

Build a legacy that lasts
