I was looking around and I happened to notice how the world acts and reacts to a day like this. It inspired me on what we like to label ourselves. Slaves or free.
Slaves to Independence
By: Uriah "The CivILLian" Walters
How many of us are slaves to independence?
Searching for a freedom that was yet to reach existence?
As we call for free spaces, the bell continuously rattles
With us awaiting to be released from our shackles
Here we are, leaving the cell block gate
Then we wonder of where we are in life and begin into debate
Sending ourselves back to where we started
Us as a people and slavery have not departed
Going off to make many, many decisions
Not one thought has been able to break us from tradition
We pick a nerve to call the assorted people ignorant
Then we try to say we have the pinnacle of intelligence
How is this so when we continue to curse our own brother?
With respect for the power; we lack it for our mother
Traditionalized by the same old pains
With no plans for the future or a will to change
The people of diversity
Are of different culture, but they resemble a family
Yet we still fight negligence
As slaves who don’t appreciate independence
