"Made of Fate"

(From 10k Pens II)

It's all your fault so you can bear the torch of blame-

it doesn't matter what the story is; if it's the theme, it's the same.

Don't you dare try to tell me that you're not putting them under thumb,

don't you dare try to tell me that you're showing them right!

Don't you dare try to tell me that you've got their happiness in sight!

You act like you're on a pedestal, you act like a king

when you're subjecting the minorities to the bottom of your shoe;

when you've got a minority as your own, realize what it is your words do!

When will you accept, when will you realize the truth?

When will you realize that it's not a phase of the youth?

It's because of bigotry from the likes of you that they hide,

it's because of the discrimination you preach!

How much longer will you hide behind gilded walls,

until through it an ounce of truth manages to breach?

You act like you're the savior, like you're the blessing that they need.

You act like you're the best friend and brother to those in which you discriminate-

it's people like you that condemn them to their silent fate!

You're supposed to spread love and be spreading generosity

but instead of peace and happiness you're creating animosity!

Realize it, step up to yourself and realize the air you're taking-

start practicing the very things you preach, stop being hypocritical!

Rather than "turning your cheek"

just look through eyes that are analytical.

Look then, see the truth, see the pain you breed from verses born out of hate-

when you finally see then, realize what you've made of fate.
