INSATIABLE HUNGER
Deep within the belly of the beast
Its stomach's growling and won't cease
There's no feast that'll satiate its hunger
Those that're feeding it are making blunders
Down under, we're told, is the residence of HELL
Sometimes I wonder if that's where we currently dwell
They'll sell us fairytales until the well runs dry
Then sip on the blood, sweat & tears of U n I
A far cry from the dream you and I were told would unfold
The block is hot in the pot as bots' hearts are turning cold
Devoid of soul as the windows to their souls show nothing but darkness
Fitting into the molds made by those who know we're heirs of greatness
Its stomach's growling and won't cease
There's no feast that'll satiate its hunger
Those that're feeding it are making blunders
Down under, we're told, is the residence of HELL
Sometimes I wonder if that's where we currently dwell
They'll sell us fairytales until the well runs dry
Then sip on the blood, sweat & tears of U n I
A far cry from the dream you and I were told would unfold
The block is hot in the pot as bots' hearts are turning cold
Devoid of soul as the windows to their souls show nothing but darkness
Fitting into the molds made by those who know we're heirs of greatness

Aye, Sir Damon
Dem belly full But we hungry
Bob Marley has been dead more than forty years
And sadly his words still ring true

It makes me think of the American Dream, how we're taught to chase it but the rules keep changing to benefit the select few.
Great work.
Great work.
