Political Love letter



Be careful pushing the people
You might rock
Your corrupt lil steeple
And the alert the sheeple
You don’t want their attention upon you
The masses will run you thru
It will be a violent biblical coup

This is just a lil warning
We grow tired
Of your endless lies
And you enjoying the sound
As the nations cries

It’s odd that you love the vile
And feast upon the stinking pile
Of the mess you make
We know your compassion is fake
All your interest is in the take

Your never satisfied
Never full
Corruption is the ultimate pull
As you stroke the egos
And smoke the bone
Of the clueless, defenseless and alone

How much is enough
To fill your greed
How long will you plant the seed
Of the endless money tree
That you harvest without mercy

The sheep are scared
Their vulnerability bared
And shared
It’s obvious you never cared

But as your days begin to diminish
The wolves gather to finish
You as a sour power
One that has plucked the petals of the flower
That has provided the beauty of life
At the expense of our strife

Enjoy the fruits of our sweat
It won’t last long is the bet
But please don’t fret
Your end will be met
With the sweet vengeance of the wet
Stare to the sky my pet
Understand where were coming from yet?
Change your path
Or suffer from the people’s wrath

Eric (and sometimes not)
