What Would You Change Scholarship Slam

What I would change? Thats Cliche. 
Change cant be done if no action is meant to follow suit. 
This is tyrany, a question of unfair monopolies,
the governments lies only meant to suit their needs,
Their goal is to make clean men do all their dirty deeds,
They make distractions all around us while they plot and they scheme,
Can't you see? 
This is something you should visualize,
Their vicous lies, Their broken mask their cheap disquise, I wonder why?
Would there really be world hunger if a single country eats their weight in a day?
Could we really inspire the use of clean power when it costs so much green?
If a mans single word could end segregation, would all of the worlds history be based on its foundation?
What would I change? Thats Cliche.
Talking means nothing if no one takes the first step to make those words reality,
Make decisions for yourself and no one else, the key to greatness is selfless service.
What would I change? Well its cliche to call it cliche so,
If i could change a part of my life then I'd change the way we wear false faces.
The fact that no one wears they're true self, 
That to this day we pretend to know the beginning when we've always watched the end.
Times have changed, just as the seasons. People have shifted like the waves of the ocean.
Right is no more wrong then the most rightous thief, they are simply pretending.
So change is re-arranged, and I've selected my poison. I choose to change nothing.
People will love you in person and stab your from the shadows, that is a fact.
Cut the grass that grows tall,
        kill the snake that hisses loudly,
                   wear your heart on your sleeve,
                            because when they come to end your life,
                                                      They wont know where to look.
