The Jackals

We argued about policies and what is fair
 We fought about fake news and what was true
 Our kind regard descended into bitterness
 A wedge between us two, dividing me and you
 Can we just talk?
 You cut me off, unfriended me
 Cuz I'm in shock
 Ten years of trust gone instantly
 And if you think I'm your enemy
 The damage has been done
 And the jackals have won
 Divide and conquer is their strategy
 Brothers fighting brothers is the plan
 Poisoning our words, distracting you and me
 While stealing all they can
 The money and the land
 Can we just talk?
 You cut me off, unfriended me
 Cuz I'm in shock
 Ten years of trust gone instantly
 And if you think I'm your enemy
 The damage has been done
 And the jackals have won
 Trolling the proles
 Sewing discontent in hearts
 And planting seeds of resentment and frustration
 Probing our roles
 Pressing differences so we don't rise
 To smash architects of manipulation
 Somehow we got turned around
 We got to bring the jackals down
 Pull off the shackles and storm the castles
 And burn them to the ground
 No compromises, too late for kindness
 Let's take the privilege that they denied us
 And build a world that's fair and just and sound
 Can we just talk?
 You cut me off, unfriended me
 Cuz I'm in shock
 Ten years of trust gone instantly
 And if you think I'm your enemy
 The damage has been done
 And the jackals have won
 We argued about policies and what is fair
