Behind The Mask
I don’t believe you represent
Anyone except yourself
I don’t believe the stories told
That you are who you say you are
That you are right, and I am wrong
​
That kids and carers don't get along
That family hasn't let you down
​
​
I believe in honesty
The power of relationships
The future of humanity
And I believe in love
I’d like to think
That people watching everywhere
Find out who does and doesn’t care
And there’s no hiding place
For those who fall from grace
I believe in transparency
That fear drives secrecy
In those who hide their true intent
Behind a fake identity
​
I don’t believe what’s going on
Is best for anyone
Divide and conquer springs to mind
The damage done is plain to see
At social media on demand
And all the while behind the scenes
Harm caused is being disguised
By politicians who make the rules
Blaming those who criticise
​
You failed to see the plan was drawn
That you were just another pawn
You’ve served your purpose now you’re done
Take off the mask
Authenticity is all I ask
