RED-PILLED

Many years ago I was red-pilled,
So I see what this world is worth,
But most people take the blue,
They’re slaves from day of birth.

Blindly playing an assigned role,
They say & do what they’re told,
Just prisoners in a great matrix,
A wind-up toy till they grow old.

Assuming they know the truth,
All marching to the same tune,
But as Neo one day discovered,
They exist in an artificial cocoon.

So mind-warped in their schools,
Taught to obey and never resist,
Conditioned to remain so docile,
Never daring to raise their fist.

Yes, blue-pilled their entire lives,
They can’t imagine another way,
Though people try to tell them,
They cannot hear what they say.

So caught up in blue pill’s illusion,
They think us mad & out of touch,
But it’s they who are so deceived,
Blue pill is their emotional crutch.

Soon their world may crash down,
As a stark reality breaks through,
Many will be so caught by surprise,
They just won’t know what to do.

But as for me I have a firm anchor,
I place my trust in the Lord above,
Regardless of whatever happens,
I am surrounded by His great love.

By fear I refuse to be imprisoned,
It’s how they manage total control,
Ask God for His wonderful peace,
And let it completely fill your soul.

Strive to read His holy Word daily,
It will guide you thru darkest night,
Breaking their web of deception,
Encompassing you with His light.

So abandon taking their blue pill,
Indeed take God’s red pill instead.
Or just keep on being their robot,
Till your life’s over & you’re dead.
