Wake Up
Man's fear has withered, and even time tries to wither the desire to know the truth.
Is it a crime to try and search for the truth?
Is it a sin to search for those things which you fear?
Fear- it is something vital to us puny creatures.
The instant man stops fearing is the instant the species will reach a dead end,
only to sink to pitiable lows, only to sit and wait apathetically for extinction.
Wake up! Don't be afraid of knowledge!
Humans who lose the capacity to think become creatures whose existence has no value.
Think, you humans who are split into two worlds-
unless you want the gulf between humans to expand into oblivion, you must think!
Even without the events of 4 years ago,
I think man would still be a creature that fears the dark.
He doesn't face that fear,
he averts his eyes from it and acts as if he never had any memories of his history.
Wake Up America, Mankind, Your Being Lied To by your corporate Masters.
You are puppets but i want to cut your strings.
Can you not see your Puppet Masters?
Can you not feel the stings of fear Controlling you?
Can you not hear your masters voice Speaking through you?
Wake Up America, World, and stop being Puppets for your corporate masters!
Demand Truth! Demand Fairness! Demand Accountibility!
I Will cut your strings, And we, Together Can End the corporate Greed
And Facisim of the ones Manipulating us!

What do you think? does it still need Tweaking?

1. Great poem.
Minor spelling errors:

"You're being lied to" not "Your being lied to"

fascism not facisim.

Also, the capitalization of some words seems a bit odd, but you may have had your reasons for that...
