A nation fallen.

Where the freedom go?

One person says something bad about the government

And suddenly there on a watch list.

Yes, I’m your terrorist

For stating my opinion,

Over those jackasses in the white house.

Killing innocent civilians,

Over what?

September eleventh?

Till America invaded,

Terrorism was the least of their worries.

This war built on financial gain,

But the prodigal son trying to finish where daddy failed.

In this nation of hypocrites

Finding value in economy,

Than in life.

Where’s the troops in Africa

Rebuilding a people

Dieing to survive,

From disease and poverty.

At the end the terrorist win

And defeat the country, that’s lost its voice.

I speak because I can,

Against this America

That once was for the people.

Now a government full of power

With these freedoms depleting.

We must speak up

And show that we truly are,

A nation

By the people and for the people.

Who’s cares are for life and liberty,

Spreading love throughout the lands.

Securing a home for another generation

To spread their hope

Across this great nation.
