The world is on fire
fueled by rage
want to keep their empire
stand on stage
the world is your oyster
if you earn a good wage
all the while — children stay caged
walls are going up
what in the fuck?
we’ve told you what we want
from the beginning
why is it a sin to be amongst the fucking living?
you promised so much
before the winning
smack the gavel
ring the bell
do what it takes
to stay out of Hell
your moral compass
where has it gone?
if you want to find out
just Google it
see if you’re wrong
the world is on fire
your answers aren’t there
what do we do?
say a little prayer

just got to remember this fury
next time you vote
so you don't, intrust
a person not up to the task
I mean, can't really blame the guy
he's a shuffling post card
for old age's, mental degradation..
(still, good to write it out
in the hopes it eases your frustrations)
thanks for sharing
