Forever Still

"Oh it's always been that way"

That's what the wealthy people say

To quell the rising of the poor

And keep the anger from their door.

"Dont cause a raucous,

You're blind, just trust us.

We've got your best interest in mind.

Dont yell and fight

For you've no right

To the resources we've left behind."

"Do not mind our prejudice,

For we’re not the terrorists!

We just want you to comply.

And Overlook the tear gas in your eye."

Children cry behind steel cages

While an ancient war still rages.

Men who think they are entitled

And provide their bigotry unbridled

"Dont be who you are at all

Unless you align with where we fall"

That's the voice of villainy.

It lacks the air of sympathy

And forces on us Tyranny

So if we dont disrupt the game

That suits their every will and aim

To rule the world against our will,

We might as well lie forever still.
