Drink the blood of your people
Whom you've already wrung for decades
Let the powerful break every inch of them
To collect a mountain of gold

Turn your back from your promises
The oaths you had sworn to them
Forget those people who have no privilege to be educated
And how you tricked them to vote for you
With an envelope on your right and a shirt on your left

Laugh with your money
Unknowingly given by those who think they aren't affected
And how you all convinced them
That your money of ten dollars, worth their lives
But of course, they don't know, do they?

Fill them with hoaxes
Fill them with cheap news
Silence those who say the truths
Make them ignorant of how you're killing them

And should I say it's not entirely your fault?
Because they may not even eat for a day
And who cares if you mess this country if they don't even have the strength to live?

Or should I say it's not entirely your fault?
Because they're so ignorant of their rights
And how they could choose for themselves
If only they read and listen to the truths

But you've won, haven't you?
Sitting on your chair that you've paid for 250 thousand dollars
And now you can devour their bones
Yet they're still ignorant

Go ahead and laugh
When your people screamed and yelled
Begging for your mercy
But you have paid them ten dollars,
And now you don't care how they'll die

      @Amayah Is it? I sometimes have to consider it before posting my poems because some contains sensitive materials. By the way, how does @Poetic Hall of Reflection work? Do I just have to post it in the comment?
