Freedom

Freedom

The unspoken responsibility that terrifies the majority.

We've been bred to let others do our thinking

Educated to standards designed to limit our own.

We've been taught how to judge and condemn based on the laws of supply and demand.

There is no scarcity of shame.

We've been told we can buy our way to acceptance.

Wash away our ancestry, sweep our history under rugs held in place by the same boots that hold us down.

Original thought, the original sin

First they divide

Casting insidious doubts based on popular votes

Knowing the sheep are much easier to conquer 

Once their faith in the fences

Has been secured.
