Welcome to our society!
We are glad to have another victim.
Surprise!
Our gloss lured you in,
Our depth sucked you in,
And our fangs will drain you of life,
You just don't know it yet.

What a joke! You thought.
Time showed you that you can't make it,
Without a backbone of grit and tenacity.
Shocking!
You watched us drain life,
Out of one of others.
You lost your dinner in the gutter.

Now you are beginning to see it.
We are not what you thought.
We are your friends until we decide,
Whether to turn you to an enemy.
We choose who stays alive.
We choose who tells the story.
We are your worst nightmare.
But guess what?
You are stuck with us for life.

In blood and pains,
Your body bearing the marks we left,
Your heart grieving and hardening,
You made a choice.
You won't bend, you will not give up.
Until your last breath.
Even the last breath, you will fight for.

We watched you fight our systems
Knowing you will try but fail.
You can't change what was,
You have to live with what is,
Until you learn to look the other way.
Remember, it's our society.
Welcome again.
