Change
Change
By Alexander Duque
We couldn’t change the world into new,
But we could always close our eyes pretend.
Wars in this world will never end,
Young lives will be perished,
Then after will be cherished.
Proclaim you’re a healer,
You’re nothing but a sinner.
Liberty trying to seek,
End as fowl rotten meat.
Pride trying built,
Deeply nothing but guilt.
Soldiers of fortune,
I feel sorry for your misfortune.
A disgrace to humanities,
I feel the pain of your families.
Been hypnotize by the power,
No choice than to follow.
Ruled by a boar,
We work hard like a whore.
Slavery and discrimination still remains,
Forever will be captive in chains.
Hear the voice of the masses,
Hear words they protest.
A boar laughed,
Heard nothing but pest.
Brutality in the street,
Innocent heads in a concrete
Animosity against friend,
Never come to an end.
We couldn’t change the world’s catastrophes,
But we could change our own adversity.
