There has always been this suspicion
There's critical we've missed
More connected than before
Yet we are all of loneliness
The was set; we've trusted a deception
As if there fullness of life without incorporation
these churning and violent systems
(Outrage without
Has our spirits in shambles
cymbals, mindless babble)
We around the issue
No how immensely prevalent
so scared to breathe a word
No one wants to it
That all they've sacrificed
We'd rather trust a screen
Than sit in humility
Discourse with a being
Instead of think for
We'd rather be fed what to
They won't know what's on our
it stops beating in our chest
Won't wait to see on our mind
it exits the back of our heads

Those sworn to protect us have become our
One-stop judge, jury, and
Granted license to take a life giving chase
Youth cut in its prime
Oh G-d, a fucking waste

The next morning, I read the of the brutal murder of the two police officers. I also read the witness's statement about the bullets having no effect upon the killer. I felt sorry for the witness. [?] I thought about how easily a person's mind could become confused when suddenly they receive a brutal shot. I didn't believe a man existed who could not be stopped by a slug from a .45

You took a solemn oath, placed your on that Bible
your protection and service
To yourself in courage
hands, dutifully raised
To uphold truth and
rather bend the knee to fear
Instead of flex muscle between their ears
Coward, that trigger with haste
I'll fire back with my words and a fist

Those to protect us have become our captors
Don't idiots your idols; so many bow down to fools
Strutting around like kings
mad aristocrats, crippled by insecurity
They prey the weak, both in will and mind
Preaching compliance is peace
That the walls they'll build will sanctuary
Masses, blinded by fear, clutch and for stability
But one day, we'll look up and see the and wire
Our monoliths of safety
And realize that our have only served to shut us in
only hardens our hearts
Isolation only constricts our
dominates when we refuse to see the other as our own
(We are here)
we ever truly free?
