Is This Really The World We Live In Poem by Kazendi Simon

It is a fact that we are all different yet one in the same.
It is a fact that as humans if you cut me I will bleed the same red blood as would you.
It is a fact that we live in a world where we are condemned not by what is in our hearts but the color of our skin
It is a fact that I am NOT Bonded by any title or stereotype that may follow my race, religion, and or ethnicity. There is no way you could convince me of otherwise. I am and will always be me and NO ONE will ever change that.
I feel that neither I nor anyone else for that matter should bear the encumbrance of the mistakes created by their country or race; simply because you don't feel the need to man for your own endeavors.
I feel distraught, alienated, desecrated, and worst of all oppressed by our so called leaders. I'm enervated by the lies I've been told. Yet they claim 'We are for The People.'
I feel that we as the people of this dying nation are ignorant yes ignorant to the world around us. We are like children starved from truth and yet still we show no effort in achieving it. So we like the children we are we allow the media to spoon feed us more of their ideology, their deception, injecting there way of life into our systems.
I feel that we are no longer "We the People." We have been molded, shaped, and reborn into the vision of our 'leaders.' Like the Matrix we are no longer born we are made. Simply marionettes waiting for our masters or as I like to call them the government to pull our strings.
I will soar above this hypocrisy, elevate past this false democracy, I will go through the fire, go past the rain, hail down the truth onto this dying nation.
I will not follow the "Yellow Brick Road."
