What the Silver Screen Brings

With a blink of eye the color is black and white.
The silver screen has led us into their mendacity
We’re stuck in this piece that they write,
So much so that all believe in the fallacy

We choose to echo their ways,
Covering our obscurity so that we can show
But no matter what we do, we’ll soon come out of our bays,
Our exclusiveness makes us glow.

Our curiosity brought us to the unreal
Thou its use was to give us amity,
Look for they have brought us to their ordeal,
Now the world has seen the calamity.

As we gaze into the whiter side
Our hopes of knowledge is at hand
We no longer wait for the tide
It comes and goes with a trace of land

This can’t be called a problem
For it has given us more and prospered humanity
But everything has a consequence in them
Remember its cause, long live unity.
