Observations 2

People are pacified by points of view
Let free for lying locked up for being 
true
Insane from the pressure and what 
we have to do
Judges influenced by investments 
so the verdicts past due
Attorneys for hire, just a liar
Who knows the right people, money 
is power
Minds bloom like a flower free under 
the sun
And struggle for stimulation in cells 
with none
Ignorance equals profit for those in 
power
Charges rack up millions by the hour
The system, the trap
No Money, no power
Living can be a set-back it's difficult 
to just be
There's no way two letters can 
represent me
