Rise

A dark secret I feel tempted to unfold and the legacy of truth I'm bound to uphold Ladies and gentlemen, let us view through this wicked universal kaleidoscope and uncover the secrets of leadership as they try to sabotage all hopes Many have been paradigms and have given us an insight on this dirty game of burlesque This mode of governance on an irony note is starting to look all picturesque My vision is blurry, I can see myself sinking in an ancient tunnel of Romanesque architecture We need urgent help or else, the people will all become pyromaniacs as they are fed up with this unjust life of quietism We all get up and try to fight for our rights unfortunately, we are mired in a quagmire of morass. Here we are, struggling to escape and these wicked rulers send upon our spines a quake that is unavoidably causing us to quaff our very own sweat It is the survival of the weakest! The strong ones meant to fight for us are devastatingly collapsing Our leaders watch aloof from the comfort of their scrapers they are feeling schadenfreude and on the side of their lips is an enormous grin of contentment. "We are sinking,help!" "Utter another word and you will all be dead!" Hunger is getting the better of us, they seem elated with our situation until BOOM! We are back on the solid ground and on our two feet again Doom shall befall them as we shall put to an end this selfish reign At first we complained of aristocracy and then to us was brought gerontocracy now we shall not practice anarchy we shall not tolerate monarchy nor shall we accept oligarchy we are fed up with this democracy and all in its entirety. It is now our realm,we shall rise to take this country to the ultimate attainable height for this realm I forsee an explicit sight darkness shall disappear and upon us will shine an unfading light let's do this together, with determination,grit and might!
