#1 - The Castes
Behind the “glitter” of progress, a segmented reality
This is not even a class war but a plain caste system
Migrant workers or slaves?
This disgrace is on us
You call it “dormitories”, but it is segregation
Ferried like cattle, not that you care
Turning a blind eye to their plight
The endless downpour from the grey capitalist sky

#2 - Horror System
How can wealth coax the deprived?
Nurturing them with mirrors and lies
Fear and division, ignorance and despair
To use their democratic freedom to keep wealth in power
The failure of our actions led to the horror system

#4 - Wishful Thinking
The perfect dictatorship will look like a democracy
A prison without walls where prisoners never ever dream of escaping
Thanks to consumption and fun, slaves will love their slavery
Wishful thinking

#5 - Desert of Insignificance
Madness!
Burying your head from this strangling life
Your only scape is the simulated afterlife
The weakest link is always our mind
So, it is not a surprise that you have bailed out
Looking how you waste your life
Hiding away from everything
Like if you are a grain of sand
In a desert of insignificance!

#6 - Widespread Stigma
Thousands with mental health conditions are often shackled
Locked in confined spaces for weeks, months and years
Chained against their will
A widespread stigma
A lack of mental health services, overcrowded unfit institutions

He was drowned by the pressure of millions
He could not escape his own demons
Fire walk with me

#8 - Disgrace
Open discrimination
Homophobic views still widespread
Criminalizing emotions even now a taboo
LGBTQ rights
Hiding feelings under the rug
Religious and conservative pressure
Virtual silence the “uneasy compromise”
Still impacting life’s, legal rights now!

#9 - Death in Life
We have heard and known that no masters we need
So why embrace death in life while patiently building our own house of pain?
No Masters high or low
Agitate, Educate, Organize, Awake, Arise, Rage
No Masters high or low
