Neo Civilization

How we divide, is where you must stay,

not too be straight or never too  be gay,

people in the city are the targets of today,
 
but what about others, small towns, rural places even the suburbs, if I may,
 
a game that we play, so look the other way,,

do drugs and they hate, they all  do the same, 

enough of that mouth, ignore it ok!

How will we ever make progress, if you don't judge them the same,

there is not meant too be progress, its the name of the game,

we are but a shame, you are not worthy or you'd know immigrants are too blame,

slavery and is murder is how we got our name,

We are known in the world, as a city on the hill, 

too give others false hope is our little thrill,

we stand for the ways that deadened the earth,

To abuse of the angels that gave us our birth,

I know we are cursed,

for things that we do, has outdone the devil at its worst,

my hunger is my thirst and love is my pain,

for the destruction of the people is at the cost of our gain!!!
