I’m seated seeing CNN & all I sees a bunch of puppets
their orchestrated actions seem like I’m just watching Muppets
elite be planning genocide over some tea & crumpets
I truly love this country & it sucks to see it plummet
see scenes like columbine I’m tryna find where all the Love went
work on bringing Light but seems like all minds set on sunset
keep my hope alive although some nights I do get upset
our brains can be Blu-Rays while yall insist on staying cassettes
Obama needs to talk to Dalai Lama out in Tibet
Peace Love & Compassion’s much more useful of a skill set
seems to me that power just makes cowards want to kill shit
Bush knocked down the towers, let the people really feel it
let’s conduct some terrorism, best part we’ll conceal it!
& laugh at all the silly psychos that try to reveal it
keep the people chasing money hoes cars & clothes
give them funny shows & take freedom from right under their nose
not the life we’ve chose & it’s not our destiny
most are just too stressed to see, I promise that Real Life is ecstasy
it’s time to take a stand hope you feel pressed to be next to we
show dissent, don’t be acting like you’ve had a vasectomy
We deserve equity – not engineered apathy
please share this with the world, do ensure it spreads rapidly
sit silent then we’re guaranteed more violent catastrophes
cause the White House & above’s really where all the assassins be
