Who Can Live Here

Who can survive here? The air that we breathe smells of blood and anarchy The water that you drink tastes of fear and lies You should not say what you think and live You are living in the time, where fake is fashion Who can win here? Your victory doesn’t depend on your strength and wisdom Your victory depends on the desecration of a referee The ground that you fight for is sleepy and risky The cause that you took is bloody and tricky Who can lead here? Your vision is blinded by greed and hypocrisies The mission you are on is full of ambush and lethargy Your message is rejected before it comes out of your heart The soil you step is full of personal mines and dynamite Who can pray and be holy here? Your faith is legalized according to an ideological agenda Your God is only accepted if he fits into their temple Your act of worship is effective if it fits into their idol Your inspirations are right when it fits their aspirations
