Hate has been with us for as long as time Woven through history, like rhythm and rhyme From podiums down to corners of our streets Under the guise of pride, it does not retreat   With religion, race, even skin colour at its core We live divided, hate turns strangers to foes So many fight over borders, gods and flags, And so many innocents end up with toe tags   Politics divides us as much as other beliefs And corruption reigns, while people grieve Some don’t vote, because our ‘leaders’ lie Believing false promises, while children cry   Even gender has become a battlefield And ‘equality’ is a fight where nobody yields Orientation and identity are a whole other mess Where it will all end, is anyone’s guess   Class still divides the very streets we walk From the meals we eat, to the way we talk No matter where we live, or what our background Ultimately, we end up beneath the same ground   Race and culture, so often misunderstood What is wrong to some, to others is ...

Oh Sri Lanka, what have you become? But a slave to corrupt, power hungry scum, A country once known for her welcoming smile, That nobody has seen in a really long while. Sadly, it was your people who let you down, Their thievery and greed stole your crown, They pillaged, plundered, and set you back, And it will take a miracle to get you on track. But once a glimmer of hope was ignited, Under one banner, the people stood united, They fought side by side for one great cause, To free you from the grip of those slimy claws. But “political' agendas quickly extinguished that flame, And once again they hang their heads in shame, Your legacy, your heritage and history were buried, By the very people your heart once carried. You’ve dealt with colonisers, wars even pandemics, Now you barely have fuel or food, it’s pathetic, You’ve even bowled over the world in the sports arena, How to restore that glory? The "leaders" have no idea. Your forefathers would be very disappointed, Seein...

The evil plaguing our world is really overbearing money and power stops people from caring no law and order, just fear in our hearts and sadly, we have all played our parts We are to blame for the madness around we caused it, because we didn't make a sound they play us like we're pawns in a game and the fact that we let them, is a crying shame They murder, pillage and rob us all blind  and again we let them, it boggles the mind remember this land is belongs to every one  and its not just for one party or family to run They don't even realize they're committing treason, they just do things, without even reason lying, cheating and stealing for personal gain how has all this not driven us all insane?? We want progress but we're going in circles and then we sit and wait hoping for a miracle are we really that stupid? have we learned nothing? a change wont come if we don't do something But no, we ignore it all like it...

Whatever happened to those days of old? When leaders fought with hearts of gold? For freedom, rights and fair treatment of all For peace and progress that would never fall When making a difference was everyone’s plan Not only cos it was right, but because they can We’ve been engulfed by so much corruption Pointless overspending and so much disruption So many people just can’t afford the debt No matter how much we pay, it’ll never be met At election time, there are so many false promises That end up just words that everyone misses It’s sad that we don’t see truth anymore, They play on our emotions and it’s all a show It’s the saddest truth of the world today, They commit the crimes and the price is ours to pay We have forgotten the power we have in our hands And our right to fight back and actually make a stand Our vote puts these selfish clowns into power Then we all complain when things end up sour Remember, our votes and voices can remove t...

It's been said before, so let it be said again This world has gone completely insane Why do we try so hard to destroy each other? Can't we just accept the differences in one another?  So many people suffer and die for no reason And by doing nothing, we're commiting treason For what? Someone else's political advantage? We need to put an end to this genocidal rage If you're a politician, don't abuse that power Use it for change so millions don't have to suffer Why do innocent souls have to die for your benefit? We all know the truth, even if the media tries to omit.  We need to make sure this nonsense ends with us So future generations can live in peace and trust  Let's unite as one race and let this madness cease And try to get along with each other in peace  People don't believe that things can change anymore That all this nothing more than a political show Messages of peace are buried by hates ugly shape Le...
