Everything’s kinda ironic, ya know?
People say that lying is the worst thing but they do it to ‘help people’?
To protect their feelings, so their sanity stays.

Hyporics run the world, people want peace but encourage war.
The world has turned into this ‘survival of the fittest’ but instead of fitness it’s money and instead of survival it’s death.

This country’s promise for liberty and justice for all is a real joke to the point where the joke is no longer funny but a repeated punch-line that demands to be laughed at and ignores the people it offends.

The joke is about a color and superiority. It’s the cruel and unjust joke that demands applause.

That joke costs lives.
