Unmask the Maskers

Father above, 
why are we dying?
No matter how hard we try 
we can’t stop mothers from crying. 

Everything we see. 
Hear. Read.
In this place
is only to mislead 

Those in power 
Cheat. Lie. Steal. 
They’re hidden agenda 
we’ve began to reveal. 

Why can’t we try 
to unite
to come together 
and fight. 

Too many brothers 
bleeding
Too many fathers 
leaving 

Too many sisters 
being raped 
too many mothers 
being abused.. on tape 

Our Heavenly Father
is growing tired 
of your blatant disrespect
he’s about to put your asses in check.
