Betrayed by Labi Siffre

[conuly]

Betrayed

To despise your government
To distrust your government
To be unable to respect your government
To know the leader of your country has contempt
for the people of your country
To be angered
not because it’s “Not in my name”
but because it IS in my name

(Something Inside) So Strong is one of my permanent earworms that is always welcome when it visits.
