Period of the Dark Ages
IT’S THE PERIOD OF THE DARK AGES WITH STREETS WITHOUT FACES
BOOKS WITHOUT PRINTINGS AND PRINTS WITHOUT PAGES
IMPRISONED WITHOUT CAGES AND PAID THE PRICE WITHOUT WAGES
IT’S THE PERIOD OF THE DARK
SO LET ME TAKE THE STAGE AND LET MY WORDS BE ENRAGED
THAT BABYLON, STAGGER ON ONE FOOT, IS TRIPPING
ON ITS OWN IMMORALITY, PRACTICALLY EVIL
KILLING ITS OWN PEOPLE, MAKING THEM THINK
AS IF, THEY WERE NOT EQUAL. THIS IS NO SEQUEL
AS ACID RAIN KILLS THE NATURAL TERRAIN
CAUSING SANITY TO GO DOWN THE DRAIN
MENTAL PAIN TRAINING THE BRAIN TO WITH STAIN
THIS OPEN BOOK PHILOSOPHY, CONSCIOUSLY AND MENTALLY
BEING A MINORITY TO LIFE. L. I. F. E.:
LIVING IN FEAR ETERNALLY
I HOPE YOU ARE HEARING ME
SOON BREATHING WILL BE AN ACCESSORY OR A COMMODITY
PAID FINANCIALLY BEING DEATH TO THE ECONOMY
THE TRUTH IS NOW BEING TELEVISED
AS THE IGNORANT TURNING WISE
CHILDREN ARE TELLING PARENTS THEIR DEMISE
PEOPLE DON’T REALIZE
WHAT THEY’RE WORTH OR OTHERWISE
OR HAS MAN’S EGO, GONE MAMMOTH SIZE?
FIND THE LOGICAL TIES:
THAT THE DEF COULD ALWAYS HEAR
WHAT THE BLIND CAN ENVISION
READING PAGES WITHOUT PRINTING
LIKE RELIGION:
THE BLIND TEACHING THE BLIND IN HOPE THEY WILL SEE
BUT THIS DOES NOT GO DOWN LOGICALLY
BECAUSE WE LIVE IN TIMES OF DEMONSTRATION
BUT NOTHING IS PERFORMED
IN TIMES OF RECREATION BUT WE’VE NEVER REFORMED
IN TIMES OF INFORMATION BUT WE ARE NEVER INFORMED
THAT THESE ARE THE LAST STAGES
WHERE OUR MINDS ARE PRISON CAGES
AND DEATH’S RAGE IS ARE PAID IN WAGES
THAT IS WHY I SAY:
IT’S THE PERIOD OF THE DARK AGES WITH STREETS WITHOUT FACES
BOOKS WITHOUT PRINTINGS AND PRINTS WITHOUT PAGES
IMPRISONED WITHOUT CAGES AND PAID THE PRICE WITHOUT WAGES
IT’S THE PERIOD OF THE TRUE DARK AGES
