Censorship. ~ 5.2o.o9

My tv isn`t clear and my radio`s fuzzy,
but it`s not reception that isn`t giving me what I wanna hear.
It`s the media and everything they omit,
never wanting to show us the real grit.
Here in this country we get freedom of speech,
but what about when a newscaster makes
exercising it his profession,
except all he really wants to do is suck
money like a leech?
Everyone thinks education will teach you
about your rights, but it`s more like
someone`s turned off the lights.
All that we get to hear is what won`t
cause any fear, but then how
are we supposed to learn from past mistakes
or do we genuinely want to prevent
the next genocide, or even a future
apartheid?
