fear ignites the masses, then sends the least evolved among us into frenzied states of havoc.
History is repeating itself, as certain lives are still worth more than others,
in two millennia we have not accepted that we are all brothers.
Race was created to divide us, then the class system created larger rifts,
and somehow we cannot agree on what the damage really is.
Unnecessary evil is broadcast into our homes,
as the media controls so many of us who hang on to its every word.
Incited by bigots that are hiding in plain sight,
we have lost the ability to distinguish between wrong and right.
Their hateful politics are the same ones future generations will condemn,
unless the world continues on its fall from grace into mayhem.
Tricked into believing that democracy exists,
the enlightened need to revolt to save us from this infernal abyss.
Truth is such a rarity now, that it may as well be obsolete;
we survive on a diet of lies, and for dessert we eat deceit.
All of this corruption and chaos are a socially transmitted disease,
caused by counterproductive us vs. them ideologies.
When you treat the privileged equally they think they are being oppressed,
anarchy would even be more structured than this mess.
It’s no wonder why many turn to their faith for guidance,
in this age where human lives cost less than diamonds.
Despite looking out the window and viewing all the widespread decay,
we are still being brainwashed into thinking that everything is okay.
The very definition of insanity is repeating your mistakes,
then somehow expecting different outcomes, on different days.
Disillusionment has drowned us, we have become desensitized to war,
thousands of civilian deaths are worthless because a terrorist in the west killed two of our own.
Is this the world we want to leave for future generations,
whose innocence had no part in creating this desecration?
It is time to break the cycle, so that we can remove these chains
that bind us to our past failures. We must finally learn how to be humane.
