choices
I'm not crying today I'm not sad I just feel small
powerless in front of an inhumane system
heads down ,everybody crawl
where is the courage and hope or do we need another victim
don’t you dare raise your voice
we are living in a world where hope became illegal
but you can still buy it ,it's your choice
its price is pain not anything material
but if they see you have it, it's not our issue
we only sell we don’t care, shit happens
if they find it they’ll need someone to screw
compensate it with money, Ur life or actions
i once dared to speak and defend my honor
everybody looked at me as if they saw a monstrosity
me who’s small, and she, that when I realized my vision went blur
she was a figure of power I should have begged for mercy
everybody was shocked by my abominable act
in their faces I deserved a death sentence
deep deep inside their envious I know for a fact
as if my words were like a sweet vengeance
Everybody stood still why I was speaking
until a small voice interrupts mine « do you know who you are talking to ? »
Trembling while speaking as if he’s aching
I know who she is, but I don’t think we see her with the same view
she does not care whether you’re innocent or not
feeding of the weakness of others
you can fight her all day long most important thing you were caught
for her you're not human you're in a trash bin called errors
I couldn’t believe it was true
looking at me with such hate as if I shook her chair
I was another thing to subdue
what did I wake up I wasn’t aware
I only have hope and a little courage behind my back
I could never touch her in a million years
well I could, but she would eat me like a snack
and I can already hear my parents tears
I guess she saw the power that courage can provide
but still I'm nothing in front of her
with one mistake I think I would’ve had died
but money intervened and everything was altered
, so I was called mentally insane
she looked at me with anger and more insurance and said
you have to go and treat your brain
I couldn’t answer at that point I was dread
I was afraid but I didn’t fully apprehend
until I got home and had time to ruminate
how could a sheep speak it should bend
I would have been eaten if I didn’t put food in her plate
we think we live in a civilization
but we are in an undercover jungle
how do you explain starvation
watch your back they are waiting for you to stumble
nothing was created for you only for the beasts
with an insatiable appetite, better not get trapped
the only solution is to eat, I need a feast
trust me ill do it for the greater good I won’t be inapt
how many souls did we loose in that way
once you taste human meat you go mad
better pretend I know nothing and pray
I’m not crying today I’m not sad
