People don’t like it when other’s speak their feeling truth,
But it’s needed to combat the brainwashing of the youth.
What 30 people want, all Australians Get,
And when the going gets tough,
All we feel is regret
Because the politicians don’t do a thing for the people,
Its ambition, they just don’t see themselves as equals.
They do it for themselves, they lie, they cheat, they hate,
They promise through their teeth, and then they call you their ‘mate’
If you’re a people’s person, why aren’t you a person of the people,
Why don’t you see all of Australia as equal,
When you see the world, does it revolve around you,
I bet you do, and for Australia, it’s kinda true.

We outta rise up, fight the power of the nation,
The runners of the country treat it like a big vacation,
The country isn’t school, there‘s too many regulations,
Fuck, mate, it fills me with aggravation.
Because you don’t understand, you’re running it free,
You don’t own the land; you run it for everyone, for me.

We rely on others to maintain our living,
We’re as western as you get, from the floor to the ceiling,
Explain this to me, if jack is equalTo his boss,
why’s there this feeling, Of inequality and of remorse,
All around, over the globe, there is injustice,
And we as people just look out for ourselves,
And it really isn’t good enough,
If it’s the modern world, why are there people dying, doing it tough
For nothing, is it that hard to understand
That people besides you need you to lend a hand,
We value hard-work, selflessness and generosity,
But it feels like we value shit all, that’s the philosophy
If you’re a person of the people, why aren’t you seeing the whole world as equal,
When you see the world, does it revolve around you,
I bet you do, and you don’t understand the implications of that, do you.

And by no means am I saying I am perfect,
I don’t always do these things, although it’s worth it,
I’m no better than any person on this shitty planet,
That’s what I’m trying to say, I hope you can all understand it,

People are people, women are men,,
homos are sapien, blacks are human,
We’re all people in the world we see today,
But the way we divide, you’d probs disagree, aye.

If you’re a person of the people, why don’t you see it this way,
Understand that somewhere, somehow, there are people as slaves,
Open eyes, open mind, see the truth,
I’m not sending this message to me, I’m sending it to all of you.

Feedback would be much appreciated :D

Hey :) you should put this in the lyrics section in misc. Work if its a rap :)
"You grow, you grow like tornado
You grow from the inside
Destroy everything through
Destroy from the inside
Erupt like volcano
You flow from the inside
You kill everything through
You kill from the inside"

I really liked this, it had great rhyming and rythme. The overall message was great, I'm suprised you didn't get more comments and likes because I think this deserves to be featured maybe people get scared away by the big amount of text that they will have to read try to space it out more. This also reminds me of slam poetry but I guess slam poetry kinda came from rap :) Great job on this, there was nothing that I didn't like! Awesome talent man!
Peace,

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! :) Yeah I was watching a video about slam poetry, I guess it would definitely have been an inspiration haha. And okay, thanks for the advice, thank you for the review :)

Now I realize that there is no righteous path, it’s just people trying to do their best in a world where it is far too easy to do your worst.
