Brave, pushing the courage out
Surrounded in a hostile crowd
Alone, no one feels any clout
Silently screaming out loud
—
Awaken from hibernation
A towering giant thumb
Pushing us toward salvation
Brother, I am not dumb
—
Don’t look at me
My years left are few
I still believe in destiny
But woke up in this zoo
—
So many deluded faces
Emptiness in their hearts
Fear of emerging races
Obsessed with our body parts
—
The battle is for impressionable souls
Weary, heartened mugwump
Weathering the latest polls
Avoiding the caustic callathump
—
The battering moral storms
Of riots and self-proclaimed patriots
Their preachy media misinforms
Ideologues and just plain idiots
—
The enduring foundation shatters
Your beliefs must now be mine
Casting fear on everything that matters
You cheat to cross the goal line
—
The stakes are incalculably real
Sewing the seeds of doubt
You boost the lie about the big steal
Rotting from the inside out
—
A country of impossible divide
Gaming the system to gain clout
To create a culture of just one side
By tearing the inside out
