It must be us

Sun, 01/11/2015 - 21:51 -- Zmac

They say the system was always built this way

to keep the poor down and keep the rich powerful, so they say

We riot and protest and try to make our voices heard

they try to intidate us and use terrorism they always use their word

it's all futile though without action

and I am not talking about violence or a bad reaction

you want change? go to school

become the politician so you can rule

If these ignorant people understood the system they would know it's not biased or broken

because no matter the race, if you put in the work, every door is open
