What liberty is this?
Parched mouths, wet eyes
Pale skin, sunken stomachs
Muscles torn, spirits gone!

What system is this?
Too many cavaties
Filled with deaths,
Sealed with threats!

Life that's dying,
Possibilities drying
With no regrets

What is this mess? Politics?
Burning out with ideologies
What do they implement?
Where is the power? Where is the peace?

Guns are hidden: explosion,
Suffocation, destruction, devastation
We need change in perception

Where are these hypocrites swearing by?
Where is society proceeding?
Nothing's new, everything's changing
Breaking, wearing and tearing

People shout, scream
Can you hear their young dreams?
It's not metallics we need to head bang to,
On the silence, life is thunder, torn asunder

Noise everywhere, voices everywhere
Pleading, appealing, asking you to wake up
You can't replace creation with addiction
Hypnotists don't give salvation

Tranquilities won't rid you of the situation
Time is talking, requesting, demanding
Asking again and agin of you
We've got to rid this frustration

Create new creations
A brand new day with a brand new sun
Sure to come, this time
This is the time!

Thank you for your time!
