Enslaved in the mind while the others search for shackles .
Believing we live in the land of the free ,
Where oppression and deception never happens .
Birthed a limitation , formed for only physical growth .
Mentally and Spiritually disabled to remain the status quo .
Origin unknown .

Or we just weren’t meant to see .
Religion vs Science fiction ,
Combative and elusive , based only whats believed .
Confused ,
Although truth is a concept one claims to grasp .
Yet when perception proves faulted
The sheep ignorantly stand , staring , afraid to ask .
Needed , yet dangerous , to leave and walk on ones own .
Fore some search for light in corrupt knowledge ,
While on the path for fruitful wisdom , now forever far gone . A twisted plot this happens to be ,
Fore the ones who see past the shadows and lies ,
No one believes .
There’s more to this world than what’s percieved .
Believe , the death and pain ,
That without change and revolution it’ll always be the same .
But what you must feel ,
Are the chains configured to the brain .
That when tried and yanked ,
The further you become pulled from being sane .
