Society

I feel alone,in the world of deceit
I stumble and climb getting back on my feet
It's normal it seems
to see the pain caused by political gain
to keep us safe in this hell ridden place
there has to be a way to leave

Society is laced with lies
if this is life I'd rather die
than watch the painful suffering
of all those undeserving
The rich have us under their hand
kept here by popular demand
laughing with their artificial bliss
they've never had to feel like this

You see the homeless on the streets
dying and trying to find something to eat
Add the drugged into the mix
eyes glazed over wanting their fix
the mother of three, her husband gone
government shackles force him to march on
The old vetran missing a leg
served for his country but can't find aid

Dirty needles on the floor
broken glass in every pore
sounds of death out in the streets
all these haunting memories
I hope to leave this place one day
grow my wings and fly away
watch this world turn into dust
I don't believe "In god we trust"
