Okay so I wouldn't exactly say ashamed, But no doubt, I feel we are all to blame, More embarrassed about what we have become, Of not how far we have come, I've said it before, a person is smart but people are dumb, I'm prepared to fight, most are just ready to run, To see the things people do to one another, Everyone living under cover, Not accepting the truth thats staring us in the face, If we keep it up, we might end up seeing the end of our race, And what then would be left, but empty space, Most live backwards and don't see what they should, As time passes I see more hate and rage, rather then good, What happened to compassion and loving our fellow man, What changed?, How did it get so out of hand?, With all the coruption and distrust in our nation, I just don't understand and it gives me such frustration, Why can't the masses come to my realization, That to be apart of this society, it's our responsibility, we need no ones authorization, Can't handle it sometimes, to witness all the wrong around, But we must rise up, because only we can hold ourselves down.
