Prison
Prison
Hate is like prison that holds you against the outside world
In your cage you’re held back from experiencing something new
Your life stays in the constraints of living a normal life you know
The guards are those who enforce hate thus are prisoners themselves
They bring in the new inmates daily through preaching hate to all
For some it is life or death for the guards will not let you leave
They don't let anyone in for they might allow people to escape....
To show them a world that they never knew....without violence or hate
The warden makes sure the inmates are confide and guards working
Those who escape might not make it but there are attempts...
Redemption for those who are free to make their own decisions....
Freedom to go anywhere and try anything to appease themselves
And not live in a closed world that gives us nothing new to behold
As people we were meant to see the whole world and not just part
The inmates grasp the bars of ignorance as they get used to the prison
We should show pity not hate towards our brothers and sisters
Or we begin our prison sentence....
For we are free and they are not
