CRUELTY

I've been in a city
In this city
They won't let you grow 
Even when it's your time to flow
They're always against your glow
Steadily wanna make you slow 
Always wanna keep you low.

People ride against good
Then protect wrongs
Feeling stronger 
By hurting another 
Laughing and bullying 
Taking advantage 
Whosoever is simple and live with humility.

The less privilege 
Their preys
Steadily taking advantage 
Of the poor and powerless 
They Wanna be God
They're so ruthless 
Even when them got weaknesses.
