My way of inspiring thought.
another target
in the crosshairs
another life to lose
only you got
the right to choose
pull the trigger
or drop the gun
throw your hands up
towards the sun
pray for rain
to wash away
all this pain
and suffering
everywhere you look
there is always more
more to see
another war
another fight
another bullet
another gun
no where to run
what you got to lose?
put down the gun
lead by example
fight with your words
the deadliest of weapons
look everywhere
not hard to find
a sample
take a look
through politic's eyes
war equals money
find a country
to destroy
tear them apart at the
seams
seems
to me its a cycle
since the beginning
freedom an illusion
another collective thought
brought on by
a media broadcast
dellusion
vote for democrat
or republican
just a manufactured
choice to make
the masses feel
comfortable
voting for a tyrant
ruling with an iron fist
in other words
the naval bases
armed forces
army reserves
military bulletstoppers
tanks, humvees
helicopters and planes
when was the last time
another party got its
claim to fame?
an outsider as presidant
yeah right
a far off dream
thinking is all I want
to inspire
not asking for a fight
just wanna open eyes
drop jaws not bombs
stop the fighting
start the peace
just another thing
that will never happen
intricate plan
to trick America
into believing
that we really
have a choice
that any single person
can make some noise
not here
not in my country
the place I call home
clever really
how a whole
race of people
was trained to follow
one leader
blindly proud
of that so to speak
knock out punch
every country demolished
another pawn in this game
200 years or more
but who is to blame
no one is keeping track
history books only tell
half the story
most kids find boring
don't wanna raise
suspisicion even
a minor crack
in this perfect plan
could send the
most powerful land
to turmoil
all the people
questioning every
thought and belief
bringing this country
to its kness
compassion ignored
as though
it were never a
part of the human physche
assisinated presidants
caused by our home team
ever heard 9/11
was a hoax?
made to happen
by our own damn government
all to unite a nation
under our red
white and blue flag
red for the bloodshed
white for the bomb blasts
blue for all the
blue collar citizens
who lost their lives
defending one thought
one word, one ideal
"freedom"
