Sovereign
Sovereign Struggle: Unveiling the Battle Against OppressionLyrics
Subject to denial of a life worth living
Feeling denied of a meaningful and valuable life
Stain the scope to blind our eyes
Distorting the perspective to blind us to certain truths
We wait with baited breath
Anticipating with eager and anxious anticipation
Under the weight of societal fate
Bearing the burden of predetermined societal destiny
I seek to put an end to this structure
Desiring to dismantle the existing societal structure
They said to bide my time
Advised to wait patiently
So I fall in line and turn a blind eye to the crimes of late
Conforming to expectations, ignoring recent crimes
Then robbed of all that could separate me
Deprived of anything that could set one apart
From the world outside and the powers that be
Isolated from the external world and those in power
Make no mistake, it's a sovereign state
Affirmation that the situation is an authoritative and self-governing state
Forced down
Forcibly suppressed
Denied our severance
Refused the right to sever ties or connections
Dissipating vision
Diminishing clarity of sight and understanding
Aim the arrows at the gates
Directing criticism or hostility towards established barriers
In the face of hate
Facing hatred and opposition
Holding the weight of our own defeat
Bearing the consequences of our own failure
We’re pushed and pulled apart by this system
Being torn apart by the forces of the system
Our minority
Referring to a marginalized or oppressed group
Held under lock and key
Restricted and controlled by authority
Forge your lies in ink
Creating false narratives with permanence
To take us all down when you sink
Using deception to bring everyone down when failing
The worst is yet to come
Foreseeing a more challenging future
The driving force is pushing down on us with all it’s might
The oppressive force intensifying its impact
But our unbending quest for truth will come to light
Despite challenges, a relentless pursuit of truth will prevail
Has oppression got the best of us
Questioning if oppression has overcome and defeated us
Primed for the glory of applause
Prepared for the admiration and approval of others
