| We’ve Been Lied To! Down through the ages, man has lied to man Over and over, lies have been told about man Lies to create a game Lies for personal gain Lies to protect those in fear Lies to help hide from those near Lies to create domination Lies to control any nation Man has been convinced by lies that man is bad Were you totally convinced someone was totally bad Would you hesitate and hold back you hand Or would you aggressively act to protect your land Lies have told pitting man against man So went WWII, the Germans were told all were bad Their troops were fighting to protect their land and for God The rest of the world was told how the Germans were bad The Yanks and Brits were fighting for country and God Convincing lies repeated got man thinking man was bad If man is bad any method can be used to control him If man is bad all actions are authorized to restrain him So today, man is bad! According to Who? Who is so convinced all is bad that he lies to you? Lies cleverly told over and over that have convinced you. The “Who” really isn’t important. What is important is you Will you continue to listen to all that is told you? Recall: how many people have you known that were 100% bad You may recall one or two, if that’s true, it’s sad It’s the lies they were told over and over that made them bad But that leaves how many people that had some good? It would seem that man is generally alright, tries to be good I find man is doing the very absolute best he can Given the environment and all the restrictions at hand Those restrictions are based upon lies told by man. Given decades of lies, of control and domination It’s a wonder man is anything but an abomination And so, the psychs and medicos say we are They’ve created a hatred and fanned so bright It can be seen from the nearest star Man is not an animal to be drugged, herded and prodded Man is the creator of the future, the future source of life You need not agree with that but man certainly can end future life! Do you agree with that? Polluted air and seas, land devoid of life! Keep saying man is all bad, with a bomb or bug, someone will end life Man IS basically good and should be helped and aided Man IS the only real friend man has and the hope of life on Earth Look out the window of your existence at the path View the goodness of your fellow Earthman travelers Lay aside the lies of old, the lies of today, move forward on the path By YOUR actions YOU can create hope for tomorrow for man Or your actions can speed the final end of life across this land… By actions, words, by your thoughts, even unspoken Which do you move towards, towards which do you push for and lead For YOU ARE a leader! The spouse has faith in you. Your child wants to be just like you. Your friends listen to you! You do create effects around you. It’s your choice of: Bad or Good? Ugly or Beauty? Death or Life? Hate or Love? Intolerance or Tolerance? Avenging or Forgiving? Confusion or Understanding? Lies or Truth? Lies lead you downward to death sure as the night Truth can lead you up to the light, man is basically good. This single fact, above all else, needs to be understood. But you say “But so many things weren’t fair, aren’t right!” True. What can I say? But what's important is: What will YOU DO? Need some help without being told what to do, what to think, contact me. Have a great day! Carl |
