I’ve said no and got punished
How lost in deceptions we are
By feeding our addictions
Freedom seems inaccessible

I’ve been honest and got contempt
How much others-reliable we are
By repeating our lies
Progress seems impassable

I’ve chosen and got proof
How enormously anxious we are
By maintaining our enemy image
Peace seems impossible

And yet I’ll always choose again
How much and long it may take
By keeping up the work
Anything is possible
