My Liberty Chastise Me
You look at me
My liberty
You smile, laugh, point
What was once a democracy
Is now an atrocity
Totalitarian in nature
But your fascist roots
They run deep
I see them
Weaving through the playgrounds
I see them killing PBS
I see them poisoning our water
I see them dismantling the EPA
I see them destroying everything
I see them building walls and pipes,
Instead of bridges
I yearn for the day long gone
When brothers and sisters
Could understand
Sharing, caring
Compassion, love
Do you know what it feels like,
To not have your government be corrupt?
Waking up every day,
The news, the press, the net, the telly
Everything that entertains you,
It contains you
You are fine
You are great
Everything will be ok
Say these things
Five times fast
For this complacent peace
Will always last
Forever and ever
You shall go on
While your government does the world wrong
