our society
decaying city streets
left empty because aspiration is so steep
the rebels and the brave are the same
but whos to blame for false idols
when tidal waves of easy waves create floods of conformity
when no one is scared why should I be any different
because I was sent to this world for no better goal than the current status quo
when corporations control the world
if we want money we must succumb to their curse
a verse will not provide a revolution
but a solution to the ones who need inspiration
