A state of emergency
Riots on the streets
blood on the hands of the elites
a throwback to history
a reminder of yesterday
State of emergency
Cacophony of a world flipping into anarchy
rubber bullets pound the crowd
no wait, those are live ammo now
blood spilled, innocent lives
lost in the government drive by
an assassination on freedom for rich mans lies
State of emergency
Don't stand tall, don't yell or you will be next against the wall
the world is crashing we are here to witness the fall
people are sick, the red mist is rising
like the cost of living in this world of rich mans devising
living through hard times, austerity measures
if you don't measure up there is no time for pleasure
workforce being overused, working for a system corrupt and abused
the method to keep them dulled and confused
State of emergency
Right wing power rise, ignoring the warning lights
the history books that told of the plights
a reprise of the last rites, sold as regaining our rights
when we are really handing them over without any fight
is it any surprise, in this world of far right racists in power
that the people are in fear of the world they encounter
State of emergency
The streets are on fire, from warlords bombs, and uninvited troops
to protest marches, against the way the world is being misused
Worldwide we sleepwalk into the great divide, the battle for our minds is the real one we face
us vs them, nation against nation, race against race
none of these matter, we are just the same, we all bleed red
so don't be misled, or fed a lie to fear the monster under your bed
the real monsters are in the houses of power
they don't care as long as we beg and cower
Thanks For Reading.
Peace & Love.
Kyle.
