The truth is
The world is cruel
The world hates all that's different
The world hates all that aren't wealthy
Education
Exclusive to the wealthy
Exclusive to the famous
Exclusive to the beautiful
The truth is
The world only wants perfection
The world wants people who will slave for the priviledged
The world wants money
Hope
Nothing but an illusion
Nothing but a dream
Nothing but a lure
Dreams
Only granted to the wealthy
Only granted to prodigies
Only granted to those with connections
What is work?
A way to make the unfortunate pay for the perfect
What is real power in this world?
Fame, money, and good looks
What is life?
A way to force slavery onto the hard working
What is a promise?
A way to use someone
Love
Only for the attractive
Only for the shameless
Only for the rich and famous
The truth is
No one cares about the little guy
No one cares about the starving
No one cares about the suffering
Justice
Happiness
Loyalty
Compassion
It's all just one big joke
The world is playing on the foolish
The world is playing on the good and the honest
Why do we even try?
We know we'll fail
We know we'll be pushed and held to the ground
We know we'll always be seen as nothing but ATMs
We know we'll be used and abused
People care about someone's death
As long as it's a celebrity or of the upper class
People want to help
When they can use it as leverage to get what they want
People are kind
So long as they can tear that person down for fun
The truth is
There's really no point
We will be used
We will make no difference
We will die worthless
We really should give up
Maybe then there will be no disappointement
No lies
No suffering
Life is miserable, unless you're attractive, rich, or famous
Otherwise, is there anything to live for?
Is it even worth it?
