This Rut Only Grows Deeper
You believe your savior will protect your lives
When all you do is steal & lie
You hide behind him and create alibis
That all can see through as you run and hide
We don’t do anything but sit and cry
We have nothing left, no reason to rise
You’ve stolen our want to reclaim our lives
You’ve beaten us down to maintain your size
Protect the rich and screw the poor
All you do is encourage the war
You claim to hate it as gun markets soar
And since business is booming you create more
Tell me now, is this situation right?
To turn a blind eye to this chaotic sight?
To see starved men fighting your fight
When all this death just ensures your might?
If you don’t make peace, nor stop shedding blood
Then it will only get worse until you’ve created a flood.
