Corrupting Lies

To be scorned by the world
Social conditioned by lies
You’re all to blame
With contradictions and hypocrisy, you grasp the world in a fist
I will not conform to your false guidance
To be ignorant, leading to stupidity
I will not remain as the fool
Why do you spread contradictions?
Spreading war for so called peace
Violence leads to more violence
Hate leads to hatred
Lashing out for vengeance
Who catches the blame and lies
Soul crushing oppression
 Betrayed by the snake
Sneaking around for their own cynical means
The laughs of the selfish rich echo in the mind
The cries of the poor, struggling for happiness
You must guide your own path
Your personality and tuition is your own weapon to see through the mirage
