Lets Mind Our Minds
My frustration compresses into carbon compound
Human Detachment, its running rampant
Life is a commodity with stock thats crashing
Passing fashion devalued souls, half of whole
Where'd we go? Where are the human sides we were?
It all gets blurred-all seen through squinted eyes
Optic lies, Audio Distorted through News channel depiction-
Vicious fiction...all compiles to sicken our perceptions
Divided we fall, and now we're falling fast
Swept up in prejudice we cant get past
Drawing lines and splitting up sides
Civil unrest at the behest of Masterminds
Sheep are herded, sorted, and slaughtered
Only after shearing their woolen pelts
Morality melts as the broadcasts herd us
Castes hurt us....rich dad, poor dad, no dad
No man stands tall enough to scream revolution
The cruelest pollution ...is the watering down of minds
