Silence the ones who dare
to march to a different drummer
still their feet and their voices.
You must follow the regime
believe the lies, don't speak the truth
repeat the mantra of the masses,
individual thoughts are forbidden!
Turn in your guns, turn your backs on religion
if you believe differenly
than the fearless leader
dare not to speak them outloud,
you will be beat down with words,
spit upon with vicious vitriol,
called names and belittled by the
mindless followers of the leader.
They bow at his feet,
are willing to trade freedom
for free gifts and money.
Weakened they sold their souls
for thirty pieces of silver.
I am saddened by what I see,
my great country so divided,
our Constitution in shambles
and so I wonder...
will they wake up and save themselves
or fall all the way down the rabbit hole.
