WE STILL DESCEND.

I'm just trying to live and let live. Somehow I have noticed lately that this not everyones agenda. Many want to get in your way It's like if you're too damn quiet and a person that minds your own business.
They want you to get involved. They want you to disrupt your life to satisfy theirs. People don't seem to be content with a person that just hides behind their own doors. Why not? they're my doors.
I can hide behind them. That's why they're there. No. people want you to choose a side.
White,black,Democrat,republican,Good,bad. They want you to make a choice. So what if you refuse to make a choice. Then you are an infidel. You are someone that doesn't belong,and that's cool,because you didn't want to belong in the first place. But now they threaten you with violence,because you are something that they always wanted to be,but can't. They have to fight for the rights that they already have. They have to fight against oppression,even though there isn't any.
Sure things aren't always as rosy as they are in some of these colorful romance movies,but you get by.

That's not good enough. Their goal is to wake the sleeping dog. Their goal is make you believe in their belief. Their goal is to make you as miserable as they are. Me casa su casa. They don't want to live and let live. They want to kill, die and take you with them,because they are afraid to die alone. They need you to take up their fight. It wouldn't be a fight if they were force to do it alone.It wouldn't be a cause if you weren't beaten in the head by someone that was confused about you calling them out.
They tell you that you must be part of them because you are part of them. You must take up the fight because you are the fight. Things will never change without blood on the hands,although things have already changed.
You must stand up for the rights that you already have for fear of them being pulled from under you. You must never forget who you are and where you came from. You must never forget the blood sweat and tears that were shed to bring things this far. You must never forget to not let them forget...
