A Vision of Falsified Peace.

We fight among ourselves and yet claim that we wish for world peace,
But how can we have world peace when we can't stop the fighting on our streets.
We bow down to the whims of those in charge, or we stand up against them bearing arms.
Is this peaceful? Is this just?
We turn our backs on a peaceful road the day that we vote corruption into power
We are left to stand up and be strong, or sit on the side lines and watch as everything falls apart.
Is this right? Is this the only answer that we have left?
We watch as people are killed everyday, but the only recognition is for those who die in a foreign land
Or the ones who have money enough to avoid the talks of war, but profit from their words of peace.
Is this honest? Is this the life we are condemned to live?
We try our hardest to do our best, but how can we spread peace, when we are fighting wars on our streets?
Lying to ourselves, because the ones in power are lying to us, telling stories of a war fought for peace.
Is this what we have come to? Ignoring the reality of the life we are now living?
A life of war hidden behind a false banner of peace.
