No Honesty, Only Hypocrisy

People say don't judge

Yet, they hold the grudge

They assume and prejudge

But the people, they misjudge

They don't own up to their mistakes

so they shy away from saying much

They sit and cry on their couch

eat all that chocolate fudge.

They become broken

use their excuses as their crutch.

 

We live in hypocrisy

Ruled by the wealth

turns into autocracy

This isn’t the United States

There is no democracy.

There are no rightful leaders

Everyone is just a wannabe.

No honesty, just commonly secrecy

The truth is our fantasy

Our “Perfect” World oh the irony

They rule in mockery

Their lies are the policy

This can't be, I have to be in a bad fallacy.

 

The citizens want to revolt

Yet, they do as they are told

The truth, I will always hold

I will not be controlled

Not matter how much I get scold

I won't back down, I wont fold.

I have the winning hand, I will be bold.

I may go to sleep cold, But I wake up unsold

One by one, I will get these citizens to the promise land

Truth be told, hypocrisy will be ousted, the lie will try to be sold,

but what will sell is the honesty that once was foretold.

Democracy will forever rule and uphold.

The right of choice will always remain Pure Gold.
