::Undivided::

If and then
If and when
Cause and effect
You can't come in

 

 

If you give me money
I'll provide you a service
If you tell your secret
I'll let you beneath the surface

 

 

Give and take
Steal or borrow
Is not enough
To touch the sorrow

 

 

Payment of love
Gifts for glory
Won't give you access
To this crazy story

 

 

What people want
And what people need
Is no longer valid
Because of their greed

 

 

Media will tell you
What you should feel
Instead of making choices
That give you a shield

 

 

Againist the lies
And the propaganda
You must stand strong
And recite your mantra

 

 

I will not fall victim
To corruption you sell
I will say NO
Even if I have to yell

 

 

I am stronger
Than your temptation
A fortress againist sin
Surpass your expectation

 

 

You can't drag me in
Because I have decided
I shall stand by my values
I am One undivided

I knew a man that spoke of the greed of this world by saying "they're all a bunch of w****s in a w****s business". This is an incredible poem! Excellent write!

This is really good. At first, the first two lines of the second section reminded me of prostitution, (No offense, i have a dirty mind) but it was only those two lines, and i loved the rest.

"And recite your mantra

Excellent poem.
