I Wish the System Was My Friend
i wish the system was my friend
push push push
finally the one pushed out
from the womb was me
crying screaming
is like I was driven out
from a heaven full of peace
where all was available
in form and in line
push push push
now am finally pushed out
to the world
naked little and innocent
so the journey begins
welcome to the system
I wish the system was my friend
push push push
finally I was pushed out
to a world controlled by a system
that never can do nothing
with out powers and authorities
in the favour of their laws
if is for my favour
that then is yet to be new
cos the evidence lies when
you look around
the reason lies when we see
what the system lays around
our lifes
push push push
finally am pushed out
to a systems that disvirgined
my innocent mind
push out to a system
where struggling never ends
I wish the system was my friend
push push push
yet am pushed out
finally to join the crowd
in line to find a life in the
midst of human made miseries
push push push
finally here in a cold world
out of my innocent mind
I acquired a lot education
achieved a lot schools certificates
just like those in line
in line to finish school and make
a life
we were told at our
young age that education
was the key
obey the law was the way
yet those in charge of our system
never change
and that breaks us
their corruption cause us to run
their lies cause us a lot poverty
their intimidation cause us a lot
misery
yet they say they are for the people
not even when is clear
they are a calamity to mankind
I wish the system was my friend
push push push
finally am here
I was pushed out with a life
I need it back
the system promise to gave it
now I realise is a lie
religion promise to make it great
that I realise was a game
intelligence human promise
to bring it to reality through
science
that was a big illusion
now I realise why I was
crying screaming
when I was finally pushed out
I realise the different of heaven
compared to here
is sad I can't get back in
I realise the different of light
to darkness
our system is dark
we need to light it up
the system need change
our life's need a reform
our future is not bright
when the system is not
our friend
just look around
if you can feel to see
is obvious you will understand
the reason why
I wish the system was my friend
