How can we live in a society that is built upon lies?
Treachery and deceit- Surely we must be insane
We constantly kill each other- not realising the pain.
We claim to help the poor, help feed them
Indeed this is true; we feed them to the soil
After having destroyed them and their beliefs
We claim to have the best technology-
but after 2000 years still we cannot save lives
Rockets, nukes. It don’t matter no more
So much destruction - it is a bore
A nightmare we live in.
A continuous dream
One that we will never awake from
One that is unseen
You see, this piece is not about just you or just me
It is about every one - from the CIA to the police
But maybe I have gone a bit too far-maybe I have crossed the line
For I have mentioned the one word which has no place in this rhyme
You are all the same - and will never awake.
But I-I am different. For I have done the impossible - awoken from my dream.
I have done the impossible - I have seen the unseen.
Someone said to the Prophet, "Pray to God against the idolaters and curse them." The Prophet replied, "I have been sent to show mercy and have not been sent to curse." (Muslim)
