Hand on the good book that I never read, I swear my loyalty though I’ve been known to fib, Holding the prosecutor’s hand with another on the switch, Waiting for the green light to fry you for what we did, So sorry it couldn’t have been different, But the chair only seats one, I apologize for the inconvenience But I chose an existence, While they strap you in for a crime I committed I swear to tell the truth, Or at least what I feel is best I am the pen and scribe, The governor seeking your obedience I’m Uncle Sam’s mistress, With the thought process of social unrest, When the enemy was a homegrown threat, I was with the Protestant, Swore to tell the truth, I've been known to fib, I’m the ******* of Lady Liberty, The child of Benjamin The judge, jury, and judicial jezebel, I’m the means to an end, The King, the colonial, the insurgence, I’ve once facilitated your independence, I am your lust for freedom Since the struggle against a parliament I’ve been dealing you an idealistic hand, Since the election of the forty-third, I am the notion that this is the promise land The thought process of the patriots
