MaskA Poem by Abdul Batin Osman BeyPunk style lyrics I wrote for my punk band Circle Seven think Bad Brains meets Richard HellYou yell so loud no one cares to hear A one-man revolution in your own head All your brave words cant mask your fear What new enemy will come when these ones are dead? Look within yourself Tell me what you see I look at you I see only empty Coil yourself in negativity and pride Your failures are your own design Behind a holy wall you hide Still never ounce do you cross the line Look within yourself Tell me what you see I look at you I see only empty Staring up at Caesars ghost Painting yourself with flattery Always right everyone else is always wrong I wonder how you can carry on You want to kill You don’t have the guts You want the world to change As long as someone else does it for you Man- with the big ideas Man- no one sees your face Man- let others do for you Let them do what you dare not do You yell so loud only the foolish hear Wasting there lives for your ideas Repeating your brave words without any fear Locked behind bars your enemies are dead A new hate appears It goes on and on and on and on © 2012 Abdul Batin Osman BeyAuthor's Note
