Contained Thinkers

Contained Thinkers Media instruction Teaching us morals Unfolding our ethics What to wear What to eat Leading us around like faceless meat Showing us what’s right and wrong What’s beauty define ugliness How to be These are lies you see Locking us in our cage We will run and buy your lies Take advantage of us Until we die We were born To understand slavery We accept A life without freedom Where are the philosophers Where have they gone? We will not grow We will not progress If free thinkers Philosopher’s minds Are all locked up Blinded by the American Dream Promises of hope and change We do not challenge We do not try Comfortable within their lies By: Tim Lundmark
