Music and Government

The beat, the snare, the drum

Starting in at the floor and flying to my brain

**** all the people who say I’m numb

I’m sane, oh so sane!

 

My thinking, once a cloudy, congested, coagulate of incoherent thoughts,

Now flows free from its once catastrophically, closed chasm,

Bringing fourth meaningless, mindless motions and movements,

Showing all, that you are who you are, don’t be afraid to fall.

 

As the smoke clears, the crystallized casts of crushing vocals

Radiate to my ears; all we hear is the hate, the hassle, the hustle

The bustle. Look beyond what has spawned to see what you find fond.

Blinded we remain; we fight, frightened and furious against this foe.

 

Conformity hinders our ability to show individuality. They attack us

With ambidexterity to keep us statues of our own subconscious design,

Yet we continue to follow these wrongly deified prodigies. They’re using

Us as antibodies to cleanse what are others conformities.

 

Enlightened I will stay to ensure Elysium for my fellow enthusiasts.

Free from these prodigies, my persistence will not fade

To grey, black, white, withered, wretched wasted thoughts.

My mind is free, my soul deep, this music is the up-beat.
