Two Sides to the Same Coin

Mankind is divisive.

Humanity insists on remaining divided

Its the mindless berating the blinded

I don't wish to participate in the violence

I'll sit and watch from a distance

They'd rather talk than to listen

Minds made up before you can offer an opinion

It's really all just a gimmick

They'll twist your views

Just for having different views

Words misconstrued

Taken out of context from decade old interviews

Humanity is selfish

No one stops to listen

The only goal is to throttle the opposition

Meanwhile,

Doctors are trying to kill you

Throwing you bottles of prescriptions

Getting paid from fucking you up

Contrary to popular opinion

What is right and wrong?

I guess its mostly subjective

Now watch these humans kill each other

Over opposing perspectives.

    Agreed and very well done! Who is the puppeteer and who is the puppet, we may never know but what we do know is that it is the masses that are suffering. The ones on top will try and place the blame on the other ones who are on top but it is always the masses the suffer. We shall be vigilant, we shall prevail!
