What Does it Mean to be Human (Lyric) by Sterling5583
Rather than suffer emotional evasion We must finally solve the human equasion. And find out... What does it mean to be human? What does it mean to be human? To have a home, a life A child, a wife To live, to laugh, listen and love. To gaze up a Luna in the night. To have a sense of wrong and right. What does it mean to be human? Make efforts to keep the past alive, How can you do anything less Than be human like the rest of us? Some time, some where, sone one reminds us Savor every moment 'cause it's precious To have a chance to be a hero, To see wrong and face the world and cry out no! To have goals, and dreams of fantasy, To measure your own humanity? David compared to Goliath Robin to the sheriff Beowilf to the Grendel Pendragon to his next of kin We all have our own weakness, It's part of our uniqueness People interacting, Emotions chain-reacting. That's what it means to be human. That's what it means to be human. I am human as can be. Full of joy, pain, and envy. I have my own destiny. Living a dream and to be free. I am human as can be.

Evidently being human involves writing awful poetry.

Being human means that you have the gift of shame. Humans must wear clothes, while sinful animals wander around in the nude. We also have the gift of speech, for it is blasphemous for animals to talk. Humans may dine on animals and treat them as lesser beings for animals have no morals. That is why vegetarians are foolish.

Sometimes we Gods envy you humans. You may want to correct the misspelling of equation in the 2nd line. I can't put my finger on it but it needs some more development. I just woke up I'll try looking at it again later. 5
