Why do we live in this cruel side of the world?
Where people is abusive of power,
Where if you speak up, you're a bad person,
And if you keep silent, you're ignorant.

Where should I place myself?
Do I have to follow the standards of your judgement eyes?
They keep telling me—
If you're a degree holder,
It's not right to get angry,
It's not right to rants about your life,
And if you're an educated person,
You have manners,
You have respect,
You are kind.
But how can they use my education against my behavior to speak up for the truth?
Does that concept mean, if you're NOT an educated person you have the rights to be a criminal?
A somebody don't need to have a degree to know the right from wrong,
There's no need to put our shoes on the victim to know if she's right or wrong,
We should not tolerate the wrong to be right,
And the right to be wrong,
Have courage to stand for what you believe in,
Speak now or never,
And they hate me for doing that,
So they put all the blame on me,
Like as if I was the beast and they are the angels,
They point finger on me,
Burned and asked me to surrender
Don't think that it's over,
This is just the beginning.
Honey, I'm ready for the second battle.
