Chains of the mind

Putting things in context, brain matter 
Contextualising the reasoning, set
Like knowing when to drop the justification given


To suit situations, mental conditioning,
And here we are again, go again, so again
In repeat sentence and tear drops


Misunderstanding of what value was realised,
In choices made, unknowing what assets held.
Burning bridges, blind to the enemy within


You see I know my beans and peas,
The difference in where each lie, in context,
Subject to preferences made, 
And all comes with prices to be paid


The perceived privilege
Said to be of the man who had it all,
He robbed from the rest of us, 
I swear sometimes, they do



But no one stopped to look
In his arms, seeing blisters,
Like tree line history, read palms 
Sweats, stained dried out on foreheads


I do not fly flags for sides
I look to understand the confusion
Just look to see, what chess game played
And life is the privilege to stress out


History is blurred, like
Chinese whispers, the story
Keeps changing, script writers editing 
Like changing weather pattens 


Religion and science
Testify to the know, only temporary
In between, opportunities knocks doors
And I am first in line, chains off the mind
