Following Blindly

Brainwashed into Evils

Following blindly

Brainwashed into evils

Believing ones actions are kindly

Furthering your soul, causing upheavals

Never to find peace

Respecting the evils one bestows

Fails to put ones mind at ease

Hidden traitors of love shows

Redefining unconditional care

Eventually misunderstanding life’s lows

Cowardly knowledge failing to share

Expert manipulation confusing the masses

Passing down wisdom that should never have been mentioned

As the truth timidly comes, but passes

Taught to never explore ones own mind and that’s never to be questioned

Lazily defining life to prevent rebellion

Applauding the most disgusting ideals

Comedically darkening the most gullible civilian

Morphing the truth the dark conceals

Justifying the actions formed by generations before

Hiding blame for the perpetrators that came after

Though the truly good will see through the concerning allure

Having faith good will prevail, then stone the hearts of evil with laughter
