I normally write about love and heartbreak But then I have decided to take a different route It took one man to change the thinking of my fellow citizens So it took one video to open the minds of people I guess at the back of people's minds they knew that they were suffering but they were just too scared Now I'm not a violent person But for the past week my mind has been telling me to write this The reason why people aren't standing up is because They are afraid of being beaten up or being arrested My dad was telling me that in the 1970s When he was in university They would take it to the streets protesting against the terrorists That were taking away their freedom Now I've got a feeling that in ten years time Something bad is going to unfold
