How long shall we allow ourselves to be corrupted?, all this greed for power makes me feel nothing but hatred.

I see a land filled heavy with despair, its people blinded by freedom that it makes them no longer aware.

I ask When did this all start?, this culture of ours that drove our nation apart.

We were never united back then, Our leaders grew drunk, thought of themselves as gods among men.

Our heroes branded as traitors and rebels, heroes who never yielded, discarded, thrown into a fiery hell

Peace was never achieved,Peace is no more than a word with its meaning up heaved.

Is it our grim fate to follow men who abuse their power?, If so democracy has failed back then and up to this hour.
