Canals

In this world of canals
No two people are parallel,
We all just monsters
Feeding of misfortunes of others.

Each one stepping on the weaker
Trying to climb the ladder of life
At the cost of the one below you.

It seems mankind fate hangs on parasitic ways
Draining the life out of each other,
We are subconsciously feeding this monster.

Even in class we all barbarians,
Hiding behind diplomacy and good ethics.
That's why we created justice as a form of vengeance,
To justify murder and brutality
That's why we created religion so we can judge, curse, crucify
And never feel guilt about it.
That's why we created class to justify greed,
 so we can steal, rob and cripple without any repercussions.

In this world of canals
No two people are parallel,
We all just monsters scratching our way to the top
At the expense of others
Funny part we don't even know what top is.
"Don't be naive enough to think you're unaffected, the conversion  has already begun"
