THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT US
Their tongues sing tales
of changes they can not make.
Their lips read stories
of old legendary myths
of how the world will revolve,
in just seconds under their watch.
They buy our rights,
sell us their plights.
They walk amongst us,
promising to take us on tours,
round a golden beautiful land
which will be built with out hands.
They plant weakness in our strengths,
hire us to go beyond any lengths.
They drive our hearts very hard,
making us do things that are bad.
They pay us that which we lack,
and put burdens on our back.
They don't care about us!
They are sweet oppressors!
They make us feel so important
just to steal our voting power.
