Should I?

Should I be the one screaming in this moment?
Shouldn't I be the one talking about it out loud?
I cannot be the one in silence in the dark room
After I have seen the light first.
The light you hided
The scream you muted
The crime you committed
And whatever you lied and omitted.

Just wished I could be courageous now.
But after all, am I not that courageous?
Ambiguous strange souls dark and no light
Hidden agenda like yours, killing souls for own benefit
I wish to say in the tomorrows to come
I am whatever I want to be now
because of people like you.

I am not the one you muted
I am just the witness of the lambs killed
By your grasp while swore to protect them
I am the witness of the broken promises
For all the lies and dark smiles hidden
The prices you begged claiming they would help.
