In My Mind

Ravaging the state The state ravaging my mind How do I know, I see my kind Entertainment is the tool To fool the watcher to see a brighter light Deep down lies the eye How do I know, I saw it with my mind The deception lined up to follow each lie, How do they plot? they work in numbers and im one, No matter how far i run I can never hide, Monitored from day one I close my eyes and wonder I paint a picture with my thoughts That brush stroke which can never be erased The gold, that old memory which has been left untold Is it bad or just plain sad Its all in my mind and how I project it Depends on the angle you are facing So please read, listen to my words as they play in your thoughts as you think of me, is it real or fake Is it true or fiction Will never know, its part of my intuition The darkened picture the light left for me That cold stare history gives me Its how people conveyed it to me But let it be, as I'm me And I can never change the being that the mirror reflects but maybe I can be the change of the many people who payed for there lives for shouting words that pierce through the system and all minds.
