Cognitive dissonance
Its not a
Conspiracy
But more like an active
Realization
Of lies
Hidden in the sun
Truths known
Yet never told
How the artist that made
lady liberty
Designed her holding broken chains
Intended to symbolize the freedom of all the people
Today
They lay at her feet
Where most can not see
Where most do not know they are even there
How Kemet was never Egypt
How Hippocrates went to one of The first known schools of medicine
founded by Imhotep
1000 years before Hippocrates was even born
Today
Hippocrates is called
The father of medicine
Imhotep is called
The evil movie monster
The children
Are taught to have
Strong backs
Healthy hearts
Slim trim frames
While their minds are
Institutionally
Malnourished
While their souls and spirits are
Intentionally
Broken
While any creative spark
That can not be
While any creative spark
They refused to let be
Commercialized
Is quickly
Spat upon
Till snuffed out
Cognitive dissonance
So what is shown to you in the mirror
Is not what your eyes allow your brain to see
Cognitive dissonance
Repetition of half the truth
So when the whole is told
They call it a lie
Cognitive dissonance
There is no need to hide
There is no need to for secrecy
You don't want to know
If you did
You still
Wouldn't believe
