Maybe we were too busy,
Searching for validation,
Late we realized,
The expiry date…
Maybe we were too busy,
Searching for something,
Incredibly great,
Late we realized,
What we have been searching for,
Is there standing,
By our gate…
Maybe we were too busy,
Searching with greed,
Late we realized,
Those souls we have left to bleed,
All these people begging for help,
In deep pain, in need…
Maybe we were too busy,
Talking about each other with envy,
Unnecessarily debate,
Late we realized,
All we ever did,
Is spread hate…
Maybe we were too busy,
Searching for ways,
To increase our profit rate,
Late we realized,
Lost moments of joy,
Love,
Care,
We did not appreciate…
Maybe we were too busy,
Just too busy,
To think straight,
Late we realized,
What we realized,
We realized,
Late!
