The Truth That Must Apply

The Truth That Must Apply

I’m testing fate for now, resembling a vision,
A reality hit the present, world-wide division,
Rapist on the loose yet stoners on death row,
Nowadays reality, freedom where’d it go?
We vow to live stress-free, but the opposite applies,
Why does all authority get away with all these lies?
Homeless on the rise, they don’t have a say,
Innocent in my home, until they take it away.
Where is the freedom, where is the promised rights?
Not in this lifetime, while there’s children alone in the nights.
Narcotics taking over, leaving the economy on there last breath,
Always remember the end, jails, institutions and death.
Loyalty is losing its meaning; the world’s turning in,
No ones better than anyone else, we all do our daily sin.
The facilities are over packing, maybe it’s a sign,
It sickens me that some inmates don’t see the sun shine,
Race against each race, violence on the rise,
Global discrimination, National leaders breaking ties.
Inflation over exaggerating, leaving people with out homes,
Federally involved technology, sending drone type items that roams.
