Oh world what have we done?

We keep on feeding the greedy

Senseless fights we have

People need to be educated

Of what's happening around em

28 pages we missed

Coz they said it was classified

28 pages that tell you

What really happened to 9/11

Speaks the truth about middle east

Why such information need to be hidden

 

Wars emerge, soldiers think

It is the right thing

You give them this

False sense of heroism

Leaders lying to our faces

In search for endless necessity for money

A paper that should've meant

I owe u something

Not define our social standing

Creating a separation

Amongst its people

 

The six corporations

control what we see on tv

The news are filtered

They dictate a one sided story

Stirring fear in every citizen

So, we'd think we are the incapable

A conditioning to conceive a victim’s mind-set

So we'd think we need the gov’t to save us

Painting a gruesome world

Where being soft is defined as weak

Where hate should be answered with hate

But it is love that heals hate

 

Not mention the the great big pharma

Ruling over our medicines

Instead of healing patients

They keep creating customers!

 

And of course, Monsanto

Food is what they deprive

If GMO is their answer

Eliminating the hungry

Why the hell

Children are still starving

Suffering, dying from malnutrition

We are not as retarded as u think

You modify our foods

Patent every seeds

Coz your damn motto

Control the food, control the world

Artificial sugar you put

To elevate our moods

Then followed by depression

And u tell me, she's bipolar

He's psychotic

Diseases you give rise to

Coz we stopped eating foods

Rather food like products

A cheap poison we willfully ingest

So, we knock on big pharma

Desperately seeking for cure

A deadly cycle of consumerism

We keep repeating

 

And look at our generation

Everyone's running around

As if on a rat's race

They let us think

We should be thankful for our jobs

But it is us that make them rich

They should be thanking us

8 hours a day, 5 hours a week

Just to play the role

Of society's doormat

 

What we need is be educated

Dare to question everything

This endless selfishness

Easily offended by posts, literatures

That oppose that standardized beliefs

Angry coz his god differ from yours

Or his life is not governed by a holy book

Everyone's taking offense

On stuff that doesn't matter

That boils down to everyone's selfishness

Coz thinking that they are always right

Is a subject gratifying the ego

We need to eradicate

This self-centeredness

 

Oh darling, open your eyes

Do i need to spell this out to you

this is the matrix i speak of

This is what's happening

We all need everyone's help

Realize that power lies in us

For we are, boundless, infinite beings

Never let anyone tell you otherwise

Never too late to change..

DEAR AUDRINE ...

Seems to me that you are wiser than your young age.
Very well states the state of our country and the world, in general.

I have written for many years about these same ills of our society.
Billionaires & Corporations Control Congress, as well as most other levels
of government. But this is how it has always been, worldwide, throughout History.

Money is Power, and the Rich have always been in control.
Hopefully, your generation ( Millennials maybe? ) can all be Educated and work
together for needed CNANGE !!!

Peace ... Tom.

Not too long for me or repetitive. You covered what ails us. And education is the key. We need to question wrongs and right them. Otherwise, the trends we're on are very destructive.

This is not too long, me dear. And you have the whole picture entirely in your grasp. Continue to be brave and strong and never afraid to tell the truth. This world needs you more than you need it. Love, peace, and courage to you always.

Well, you got that off your chest. Eh . . . I was raised loving America. In my golden years I have decided a lot of what you said I agree with. In my mind, I still love America, but I love the America before I saw things it was doing which made me sad. This monster we have in the White House now is worst than any of the others before him.
