It seems long ago;
Kings were in charge
Kings with authority were in charge
It seems long ago when mouths were closed
It seems long ago when living was simple
Money, gold, diamond and silver had no murderous hands in ruling
It seems long ago
When apparels were simple and the feet were the best sources of leg protection
It seems long ago
When we breathed the scent of the earth without inhaling sicknesses herbs can’t cure
It seems long ago when dust was used for building and not blinding
It seems long ago when theories of headaches were not forced into poor heads
It seems long ago when fame was nothing to die for
It seems long ago, long long ago
When politics was nothing but a word unknown
And peace ruled the earth
Now mouths are widely opened
Titled kings bow to their own shadows
As overall bosses kneel to ascend godship prominence
To eventually kill beings like fowls for their buffet
With sharp machetes of greed
