Analysis of Corruption
We are slowly erasing our history. We are
progressively becoming a mystery. The
government is stealing knowledge from our
kids. As pedophiles sell them for the highest
bids. Our rights will soon be a thing of the past,
once their true intentions come out, we
will not last. I never wanted to believe it, but
now I perceive it, almost as an achievement.
The fact that I can see, how corrupt we are as
a society. Let the truth be told, that when the
world starts to slowly unfold; we all will feel it's
pain, while nothing and no one will remain the
same. We will be forced to depend, solely on
them, over and over and over again. Anything
we may have at one time cherished, one day
it'll be here the next day perished. I feel we've
been distracted enough. I call out their
enacted bluff. I saw the world changing before
my eyes, it put on a disguise and asked the
weak ones to close their eyes. They distracted
us from knowing the truth, while they seeked
out our underdeveloped youth. Anyone ready
and eager to believe the lies, will be in for
huge surprise. I like to live my life based on the
facts that I know, and as the media multiplies
allowing shadows to grow, the manipulation
will follow. See it however you will, whether
now or when it all becomes more real. Just
mark my words that I have spoken, cause
the beast inside me has been awoken.
