oil painting of a local Malaysian village
The age of innocence
The country folks live
Every morning they see
The sun light beating in
The planting and farming
Back bending jobs with land
They say government gives
They have a life an economy
The world just moves
In circles all they care
In their minds the ruling elites
The age of innocence in their minds
They don't ask
How the ruling elites get the funding
From the public taxes using it to shore up power
The villagers working on their back bending jobs
The age of innocence
The country folks live
It's here the ruling elites control
With deceptions and racial sentiments
The fixed deposits
In the villages will be gone
When the children IT savvy
Mixing with the crowd in the city
In time the age of innocence
They realize the deceptions
Slowly the way of changes shall rule
In the land of God's gifts
