Power To the People

People are not born to hate or discriminate To abuse or to violate, These acts are taught through domestication Of powerful indoctrination And continual manipulation, Through media, parents and society It hard to escape this reality, To find our love and inner peace At least this is my philosophy A personal opinion and thesis, That says if we promote a more positive way In the same way we see negativity displayed, That we could manifest and transform people to change The way they live from day to day, With positive role models That don't reinforce fear This much I believe to be clear, Where people become less fake and more sincere The future could be bright and clear, And that the people of this world could learn to unite And heal the callous political divides, That are used by those who rule To breed a tribal and confused, Humanity that is not born but bred to hate Through the use of a brainwashing state That requires our compliance, So that it can rule and control But through change we can return power to the people.
