Based In Demonic Ways

If you are not playing sports...
Get out.
If you are not attending school,
On a scholarship.
Get out.

Visit but do not stay.
Those who give...
Are the least respected.
And that is projected in the atmosphere.

The people sit in dens of sins and wickedness.
And those in control,
Have done their best...
To protect the wishes of their ancestors.
Those who lie, cheated and stoled!

If you are young...
Have fun!
And get out.
Those too old in their minds...
Have been confined!
A sniffing dog will not find life lived wholesomely!
Not within the boundaries.
Not from these folks.
With traditions based in demonic ways!
