A Trying Time Is Perhaps Near
It's chaos, chaos everywhere!
The economy has collapsed
All the major cities have been attacked
The U.N. and military is on the street
Our food supply has been cut off
They are hauling people off to FEMA camps
They tell you to go the camps
There is food there they say
But they are executing people there!
Stay away
Run, run
Where to run
People are acting like animals
America, our America is ruined
Some political dissidents were taken
From their homes in trucks
Their weapons seized
And all I have is food and water
For a few days
My can opener
A knife
I'm not a master survivalist
I would have bought everything
But I never had the money
I want to live
I want to live
I will live
I will live
They try to make you scared
With their guns and megaphones
And martial law
Martial law across the nation
And will I stay at home
Will they try to seize our emergency food
Or will I flee
Flee to the place of refuge that I know
Have mercy on me Lord, a sinner
Terrible trials have come upon us
I pray that I will do what is right
In your eyes
Our America
What has become of our America
Of this nation
The terrible times
I think they are near
