They say we're criminals for our syllables and stanzas But the truth is what matters over any wishful answers Cos Poetry is a form of resistance and rebellion From the time of Aristotle to the plight of Palestinians Yet they Obfuscate the truth, vindicate for freedom Keep our necks covered in boots, eliminate our fiefdom It's not often that we look back throughout history But it shouldn't be me teaching you lessons of humanity Compare the massacres of people from the dawn of time It's a tragedy we haven't learnt it's a repeating crime Genocide, mass death, the shutting down of life Dreams of innumerable souls Gone in the blink of an eye It could have been you and me any of our family Any point of history suffering from atrocities We could have been a black man working plantation Seeing our families killed, slaves to a white nation We could have been in Bosnia as the militias arrived and killed every single man woman and child We could have been in Germany as peace loving Jews Exterminated by the evil in world war 2 We could have been in the twin towers as they burned and fell We could have been anywhere on earth that man turned into hell So many variations of skin, so many of could have been kin Our eyes can see spectrums of colours but not the spirits within Yet we still continue the patterns, thousands of years later Money power and empire are still something to savour The strong kill the weak, instead of offering a hand Success off the backs of others they keep us kneeling as they stand We live in a so called civilised age So why are there still kings and queens? It's not so hard to gauge that Civilisation is an illusion for the masses So the ones in power can keep the people stuck in their classes They make us believe that they saved us from the abyss When in reality we don't even need them to exist They're just flesh and bone like anyone else on this earth With money and power for no reason other then their birth Monarchies and governments see their people in the same way Commodities to use abuse and throw away Leaders of the world are totalitarian We need leaders for the people, egalitarians No more vilifying victims of oppression and injustice I believe in my heart if we work together we can stop this One innocent death is enough to give us incentive Too many deaths around the world that could have been prevented Influential figures only care about themselves stop looking to celebrities who only care about what sells Stop looking to online tv hosts with no souls Using the horrors in the news cycle to monetize their shows They have no care of the pain and the despair Whether it's a child or a woman it's all just content to share Recently I've spent a lot of time Philosophising pain Trying to quantify why we never go against the grain Are we doomed to repeat these trends until our extinction Are the differences between us so vast it's beyond comprehension Cos it's an affliction An addiction to destruction No restriction to our conviction in Expeditions and acquisitions our impositions cause devastation and oppression to millions in succession Let's question the depression and work on the prevention These cycles of violence need to be burnt into flames They need To be buried in the ashes of our genetic shame Liquidate the assets that contribute to the pain Make it so only justice and humanity remain Provide quality equality to every single life Globalise the common goals of reaching the Devine I'm not talking about religion or finding your lord I'm talking about the divinity that resides within us all Someway, I'm gonna find peace in my lifetime Someday, I'm gonna show my kids a free Palestine Someway, equality will be easy to find Someday, we'll all be riding the wave of the sublime It's not out of reach, we can absolutely find bliss The cycle ends here We must be better than this
