I want to run around and gloat
I want to shout that I was right all along
At the people who thought I was crazy
At the ones I tried to warn
But everyone I love went and got it anyway
Ticking time bombs injected into heart tissue

Keep them sick
Keep them dumb
Keep them tired
Keep them numb
Keep them distracted
Keep them reactive
Keep them weak
Keep them asleep

They called us plague rats for choosing to think,
For questioning systems that profit when we sink.
Now that doubt has nowhere left to hide
The truth spills out, a turning tide.
I kept my health through all their scorn,
But not one "sorry" since the storm.

Did you smell my blood in the water,
fairweather friend?
That seed of resentment in your heart
I dont remember sowing it.

Virtue signaling and destruction abound
A uniting goal nowhere to be found
Too high on emotion for critical thought  
Pallets of bricks the anonymous bought

The stamping of boots upon human faces
Shadows fueling a war of the races
History repeated every four years
For votes from a populous motivated by fear

Expectations subverted

Narrative deserted

8 years of waiting

Wasn't worth it

Theres a fog in my mind that obscures my focus
And all the things in my life slip by me unnoticed
