Any part
within us
yet you chose
to introduce
pain fear and despair
You chose to bring
conflict and violence
you chose
political corruption
and arrogance
to use as your voice
as in the dark ages of old
You chose
the mechanisms
of destruction
for the minds of our Young
yet
You still refuse
to grasp the concept
We are one

The balance
shall return
and you people will learn
that no matter what you do
poison the land
the air
the water that we drink
We
are going home
Back
to our garden
before
we became
what you crave
Obedient
