DANGEROUS TRENDS

Politics will be the husband of global instability
And religion will be its wife
If we let the couple loose
We will lose ourselves
…and lose our world
Because the love that drives them
…are passionate fires which run wild emotions
…like horses at war
Only stopping when breaths flee bodies
Take note
Do take note of these dangerous trends

II
Once hypocrisy wins hearts
And hearts follow wolves thinking them sheep
The followed become Gods
…their silence in defeat
…and their grumbles in loss
Turn dangers to ride hearts into destruction
Only stopping when breaths leave bodies
Do take note of these dangerous trends

III
For we met a world we need to leave
…safe
So other generations will acquire to give out
How can we turn bees to bite to our death
When we can just fly to safety?
Be careful of the couple of destruction
Live free of their passions
Be no horse of their wins and losses
It is only by doing these
Will we safeguard the world we inherited
…for the world to come
Yes, do care and chain the couple of destruction
…to stop these dangerous trends
