We all follow false idols False beliefs and false democracies We walk the street bouncing to someone else's beat! Fail to speak up when time calls for it. Celebrities gain front page prestige yet we look away when children die in the Middle East. The media giants and the political liars created our society and our priorities yet are we the ones to blame for allowing others to influence our philosophy. Society was created in belief in a book, many different but all with the same hook! Previous generations used these to guide people to be good citizens, creating laws that divided gods creatures.. Philosophy, self help books and religion. stop preaching from other people's scripts  and start loving one another!
