Endorsed Enslavements

Endorsed enslavements,
Has left them insignificant.
Has left them in stagnation...
In segments where their conditioning,
Leaves them infighting.
And in competition!

Divided by beliefs.
And controlled by religious divisions.
Within themselves they have bigoted concepts.
Triggered from birth.
And constantly rehearsing their indifferences.

Jealousy and envy...
Keeps them as a people divided.
Entertained by transgressions.
And left to recycle their anguish and pain.

No gains are made.
As unity spoken becomes a myth nonexistent.
And resistent to change,
Keeps them significantly deranged...
In a sustaining acceptance of shallowness expected.
Intentional!
And identity eroding.

To effectively impede a higher consciousness...
Few of them nonconforming choose and succeed!
Freeing themselves of limiting weaknesses,
Taught that they had no choice but to breathe.
