From the outside in
From the inside out
The world we see has gone crazy
Lost its ever loving mind
Gone are the days of prosperity
Forgotten is the struggle of our forefathers
Was it all a dream?
Is our existence morphed into this twisted reality?
We are susceptible to lies
Threatened by fear
I am enraged by all that I see
My pleas are ignored
My vision disputed
The blind eyes don’t see the tragedy unfolding
Our people turn to others and chastise their own
Dismissing where they come from
Ignorant and close minded we become
Common sense is lost to our society
Eroded by the constant saturation of stupidity
Bring me a change
Open up our minds
Unlock our hearts
We see the tragedy but fail to change our destiny
“If we don’t learn from our past, we are doomed to repeat it in the future”
