This is an original poem that i wrote. It is currently untitled. Enjoy.
Gotta sell my soul just for a chance to advance?
How can we play fair when those with lofty titles
who quote scripture from bibles
are morally noncompliant?
We the people, reliant
on a system based on deception
In contradiction of its own laws
since its very inception
I give you this diction
cause I refuse to graciously receive the fiction
spewed by the elected
We the people, deceived
when we should be protected
constantly rejected
Sending us away dejected
Forever in search but never to find
Blind leading the blind
We the people - unique in every way
but lost in our own minds
Constantly chasing wealth, Always on the grind
We got a little money but never the time
While these blood suckers do business
around corners where the sun don't shine
They teach us to play fair, play by the rules
We play fair, they play us for fools
Boxed in mentally
We put ourselves in the box
Did away with chains and locks - physically
Married the game - introduced this new form of slavery
We the people - born in complexity, drawn in simplicity
And sold a fantasy that doesn't match reality
We the people, we - the walking dead
Daily feasting on the lies we're fed
Life after death, heaven and hell
Life on this earth is life in hell
Take the good with the bad
But still we pray to God for better cards to no avail
So what's really real?
But I keep faith
And every time I feel the sun on my face
I put hope in tomorrow
That there will come an end to this struggle and sorrow
I keep faith
I put hope in tomorrow
I play fair, I play by the rules
I educate myself
I no longer play the fool
