The Lioness
Promises-
Have become
As plastic as
The good guy badge on your sleeve
So join the force
Force yourself
To fight another round
Of mediocrity
She medicates us with words of love
One serving, one dose, one noose around our neck
Promises have become
As plastic as the good guy badge on your sleeve
So join the force
Force yourself
To fight another round
Of mediocrity
She medicates us with words of love
One serving, one dose, one noose around our neck
So sedated
By these shallow calls
For change
Intoxicated
By the new
holistic hymn
Holistic hymn?
The lioness
has drawn her silver sword
Not in triumph
But in defeat
So sedated
By these calls for change
Poverty
Complacence
Nostalgia
We have no hope of solving our problems without harnessing the diversity, the energy, and the creativity of all our people.
