The Modern Rebel
Sincere, is your intent.
Bold, is your reasoning.
Sad, are those that see
Just what you've become
Corrupt, is your decision making.
But sincere, is your intent.
Correct, is all you accept of yourself
So correct, is all you allow of yourself
Improbable, are your expectations.
Impossible by a mere human.
We all have faults.
Do not convince yourself otherwise.
For correct, is the one accepting his incorrections.
Incorrect, is the one blind to his triumphs.
From whence you failed, you may see again;
To correct the faults, and be right at last.
Rebel not for selfishness; for your sake..
Rebel against those with unheartly intentions.
Rebel for the sake of those feeling the effects of such.
Rebel not for the sake of being a rebel,
But to correct those that fail to correct themselves.
Against the failing system,
The evil machine
The unrighteous being
The seldom unseen
The seldom unseen
