Wake up!


We live in a society where you get rewarded for death but outcast for success

Where there is only one honesty way to succeed but people don't find the need

You will lay on your back and make a burden for your country but not stand up and make a sermon where you succeed

But you cry for the government for assistants yet you don't try to do for yourself

But try to take from other people's wealth

You should look at yourself and say why has our society come to this

We need to get up off our lazy ass

And start making a change fast
