Unscramble the Blue Letters
Rather than resist our masters, we let them widen our rfits, like mindless, mrtaeail junkies, we seek that which lowers, not lifts.
But somewhere in our midst, there's been a paradigm shift. Justice is getting restless in its chains. Our ytuoh find it useless to saraepte their souls from their brains, their truth is iaenringd, their integrity insustained. Let me call your attention to those who svree as eemlaxps.
Those who daily give their all, but their reserves are still ample. Those who battle friend and foe, yet their hope is never trampled, they make music, never sample, and the world's ugly could never cancel the fullness and the sweetness of their composition. Nor the unadulterated truth of their mission.

Original Text
Rather than resist our masters, we let them widen our rifts, like mindless, material junkies, we seek that which lowers, not lifts.
But somewhere in our midst, there's been a paradigm shift. Justice is getting restless in its chains. Our youth find it useless to separate their souls from their brains, their truth is ingrained, their integrity insustained. Let me call your attention to those who serve as examples.
Those who daily give their all, but their reserves are still ample. Those who battle friend and foe, yet their hope is never trampled, they make music, never sample, and the world's ugly could never cancel the fullness and the sweetness of their composition. Nor the unadulterated truth of their mission.
