Slavery

Slavery…
Slavery…
Slavery…
Framed with Poppies, Sunflowers and Roses.
Symbols of lives lost.

Some deploy words trying to justify.
What they’re all fighting for.
Twisting reasons to fit their ends.
Coffins, crosses lined up in rows.

Words hurt once peace is broken.
Promoting differences through prejudice.
They’ve gone too far.
Media promoting inequity and inequality.
Words used to justify war.
Freedom justified through telling lies.
No reason left in the end.

We promote peace through inequality.
Competition is a smoke screen.
What’s the difference between us?
If hurt, don’t we bleed?

Words hurt once peace is broken.
Promoting differences through prejudice.
They’ve gone too far.
Media promoting inequity and inequality.
Words used to justify war.
Freedom justified through telling lies.
No reason left in the end.

Our path towards our end,
Used to justify mass extinctions.
Hate knows no real reason.
Death is not a reward.
Freedom isn’t gained through violence.
War justifies nothing at all.
Death leads towards our extinction.

We promote peace through inequality.
Competition is a smoke screen.
What’s the difference between us?
If hurt, don’t we bleed?

Slavery…
Slavery…
Framed with Poppies, Sunflowers and Roses.
Symbols of lives lost.

Heaven’s gained through using love.
Hell’s gained through using hate.

(Spoken softly at the end with conviction)
A bullet costs five cents.
A life lived is priceless.
Lies are all truly worthless.
Break the cycle of hate.
Equality, common sense, common rules.
Leads us towards the future.
Death’s no reward at all.
