May 2015
We’re not cut out to fit in this world
Where everyone’s living a sugar coated lie
Men are being slaughtered everyday
Yet we’re still rendering life without taste or feel for our soldiers
You see it’s all a show
Filled with so many deceptions and misconceptions
The numbness is spreading

Why so ignorant?
Why so naive?
Why so blind?

It fills my eyes with fury
Homes demolished
Lives diminished

It’s the end of the day and what have we accomplished?
The same monotonous thing
Whereas
Our men have been carrying all our burdens and woes
Our men have been fighting and bleeding for our freedom
Our men stand tall in the streets, and bleed without a sound

Now tell me again,
What have we accomplished?

That’s right,
I’m going to war.
...American ******...
