Quest- Ions

worship false idols 
crave self improvement 
run for miles on a stationary wheel
no movement 
cant make an impact in this world?
rendered useless
slaves to our egos while 
others points of view switch
healthy is living spared for the elite
lower class being washed out
that's why junk food is cheap

kill me with a smile on your face 
I'm expected to work for your benefits?
inject those steroids so you feel powerful
please your weaker than the rest of em
form a line do as we say don't question it.
  
the juice box read concentrate but i just 
can't seem to beaches full of toxic waste 
and most of what we eat too. 

no point to this life living on the edge of a knife
but i guess its better than to die 
obsessed with death rotting flesh
and wondering the reasons why?
