Pigeonholed


Like domestic birds kept in a cage,

Categorizing them disregarding the age.

No matter where he is or where he came from,

once you are sorted, that stays firm.

 

White in buildings, black in shambles

If someone breaks social norms, it spreads as scandals.

Always criticized by the stereotypical crew,

If they say you stay there, you probably have no other clue.

 

Juvenile getting egotistical day by day,

they don’t even care about anything blazing away.

Always inquisitive about other people’s matter,

just to tag them and brand them until they shatter.

 

When one is spilling his sweat, 

the other one is in advantage you bet,

because this is how everything works,

just the influence of ungrateful jerks.

 

Aside from these there must be peace,

to put everything back to its original piece,

no more oppression no more division,

how merry would that be, just envision
