What is said and done, and to who’s end?
Consumed and left to starve
Beaten back, in disgrace, without words
You can’t run away from who you are
Born to inherit, bred to control
No one special but you fulfil a role
While you’re rejected, silence, suppressed
Until it’s time for you to go
Ensure these survival instincts
The next one steps up
Of those whose goals suit your own
The process plays out once more.
We’ve never been free, condemned to our destiny
Rejected, silenced, suppressed, condemned, consumed, inferior.
