Language Arts lyrics

If speech were but mathmatics

Universal, devoid of nuisances

It would bear no need of humanity

There would be no civil unrest

Its interpretation has variances

They are quite polarizing naturally

And are often open to confusion

The nature then of language

Its conformity breeds harmony

The efficiency of all societies

Though intentions may misdirect

Or mistakes made be long lasting

Yet lexicons so different or difficult

Cannot overshadow what is true

That we all can understand easily

By observation and by empathy

Expressions universal communicate

They mirror the soul, initially akin

Only alienated by barriers learned

Knowledge that predicates us all

A polyglot global may find constant

An inability to comprehend others

The means of another, of themselves

Never grasping each's intentions

It is not just syntax or grammar

That can denote what needs to be

Experiences cultivated by emotion

Make room for linguistic empathy

They are separable from man

Animals too know this so well

So we must then understand

Initially, we must all be very human
