THE WORLD OF MEN
Welcome to my world
Welcome to the world of men
Men who know not to be just
Men who think nothing of trust
Welcome to the world of odds.
A place where we celebrate the wrong
Where corruption is our song
And only the rich belong.
Here, we castigate transparency
Only to support barbarity.
Welcome to the world of irregularities
Welcome to the world of flaws
Where we think nothing of the law.
Here, every act is of cruelty
And we’re ruled by inequality.
It is a world of partiality
Filled with all absurdity
But amidst all abnormalities
There is at least one reality
With God alone, is impartiality.
