In a world

In a world full of snakes 
How do you tell which is poisonous 
Each identical
Yet some harmful

In a world full of political parties 
How do we know which one is all inclusive 
Different paths 
But the same ending?

In a world full of smiles
How do you differentiate between lie and truth
When promises are empty
And lies become identity

In a world of corrupt politicians
How do you decide which one is genuine
Are they playing nice for their campaign?
It's hard to trust when they've no shame

In a world that favours white 
How do we expect change 
When history is the same 
When past and present live in the same age

In a world that fights for power
How do we become equal
When the world is against black people
When life is a climb to superiority

In a world that lives in delusion 
How do we escape ego 
When they are blinded by privilege 
When they lead without reason
