OutspokenA Poem by Harry MoraI was just a child So easy to fool Dropped into your system Force fed all your rules
Suffering, the weak Stepped on by the strong Ignored and neglected Unheard for how long?
Dark entries In my lyric book Looking around for All the things you took Dignity, self-esteem Devoted to the lies you feed me
Quiet all these years Now I'm speaking up Sick of how you look at me I just want it to stop Quiet all this time Now I'm lashing out Sick of how you treated me Silent all these years!!!!
Is this what you want from me Quiet,
obsequious, subservience Misinformed, unquestioning Assembly line citizens Programmed by TV
My religion or lack thereof Race or color Whomever you despise
Fringe group liars Names they're given Suppressed, subverted, CATEGORIZED!!!! © 2010 Harry Mora |
