The System

This composition denounces the actions of the political systems.

You claim that I do not want to listen to reasoning.

At the same time, you never speak the truth.

You do not accept me in your clique because I disagree with your evil schemes.

Perhaps you think I am a slow learner,

But the things you teach are not worth learning.

 

I do not have to listen to what you say because I can see what you do.

You promote prejudice and stigma in the society.

And you discriminate against poor people.

You are nothing but victimizers, liars, and thieves!

What makes you think I would trust you or believe anything you say?

 

You sold me an expensive key that does not fit any lock.

And you taught me to knock on a door that never opens.

How can I survive in your little beehive?

When I sweat for my money, you milk my pocket in the name of taxes.

And you fill my head with empty promises.

 

I do not intend to take a chance on corrupt people.

You greedy leaders gave me nothing of value,

But you took away my few possessions.

You pay me a useless shilling, and you label me as a lazy and unwilling man.

It is clear that you are opportunists and exploiters.

 

I am tired of the wrangling and your false preaching.

You should ameliorate your judicial system.

Frankly, your so-called justice is a complicated process, and it is a sham.

I do not think much of you and your unjust laws.

You have built the system to benefit only the upper class.
