Currency of Conscience
Should i listen to my father,
When he shows me right from wrong,
The truth just serves to scold me,
While the lies bring peace and calm.
He was onlt trying to help me,
With the problems that i faced,
But what reason could he give me,
For the manipulation of our race.
What is it that keeps us,
From perfect harmony?

With wealth and material greed.

A system to control,
Based on nothing but money.

Like a snake abandons skin,
They forget the perils of their youth,
Betraying the very people,
That they, themselves, had once been.
