Who am I
And who are you?
What is real
And what is true?

I see good people
Doing evil deeds
I've seen the righteous
Plant wicked seeds

Up is down
And left feels right
Standing your ground
Is an internal fight

The very moment
Empathy is seen as weakness
Moves human life
To just a basic business

What have we created?
What is this?
This can not be debated
We are beyond forgiveness
