Suffering

Suffering 

I'm living in a democratic country
That is full of conflicts, Overflowing Conspiracy
Trying hard to find that genuine serenity
That is hiding beyond overwhelming sovereignty 

I'm witnessing a twisted faith
On this underrated state
Keeping the citizens await
While neutralizing the high crime rate

I'm confused of the situation 
And asking myself such question
What is wrong with the government's manipulation? 
Because there are still ongoing corruption

This mode of confusion
That is trusting the government's decision
Even it makes unpredictable transaction
And leaving the side of our most trusted allied nation

I'm living on this country freely
But I'm questioning myself on every mystery
What is the purpose of this tempting fantasy? 
If we cannot face the country's future in reality

I'm Suffering in my own nation
With people that doesn't appreciate opinion
They keep on doubting, criticizing their own decision
Because they are the one's who vote during election

I'm suffering from an unknown sickness
Inherited by people that doesn't appreciate athlete's greatness 
They keep on giving negative comments 
Even that athlete gives honor and success

We must face the reality
That We, Ourselves is our own enemy
And keep our hopes and dreams alive for this country 
By trusting the government on enhancing the economy
