Brighter Future

poetboy123

Living in an age, surrounded by propaganda

War after war, writing down our bloody saga

Yet this is simply the calm before the storm

Our fury still flows, and the truth has yet to form

 

Vultures fly high, ready to steal from the bloodshed

Battles continue as more are sent to their eternal bed

Now the lions must exit from their solemn caves

Roar out against the lies, avenge the many graves

 

Instead, we remain sheep, kept in a merry dream

Herded with beliefs, accepting everything as it seems

False, woven hope aimed towards the wrong path

Will you still simply sit, or let loose your wrath?

 

Kindle the ashes, light the flames of Justice once again

Deep inside our hearts, lies a way for us to make a change

Fury free to prowl, finally released from their dens

Refuse to be controlled by fate, destinies our to arrange

 

Get ready, let your blood boil, for now is the time

Equipped with your pens, make them pay for every crime

 

It's time to end these futile killing

End the search for misguided goals

End the cruelty of human by human

End the heat growing fiercer by our hands

 

For too long now we have been caged

Finally free to set free our rage

With this ink we use today

Write a way to a brighter future

    A brighter future would be a wondrous thing but the politicians and those in power do not want that for us mere underlings.

      Then, we'll simply have to make one ourselves! 😀
