I'm not anti-establishment or anti-government... its just that I'm fed up of the system and this is what I drew inspiration from back then.
We call ourselves a democracy,
But are we living in hypocrisy?
Why proclaim "freedom of speech",
If we practice what they preach?
Freedom, curtailed by limitations,
Work best for these fucking politicians.
Statures and statues built in their name,
For this is their claim, to power and fame.
Now, they crib about Reality Television,
Against our "culture", they seek regulation.
Over in Parliament, they debate and decide,
While our farmers out here, commit suicide.
With terrorism, rape and honour killing,
Our country sure seems progressing.
And about issues and acts of violence,
All tough talk, ends in silence.
After sixty years of independence,
And freedom controlled by governance,
In what we call, a diverse state,
A fascist regime, may soon seal our fate.
