Unbelievable
You started a revolution and I got caught in the craze
Your words created an ocean and I drowned in the waves
Promised different and better to the people outside
Gave no indication you had something to hide
Speeches destroyed mountains and men
We were all behind you with sword and pen
We fought battles against something we didn't get
You didn't give us a reason to not trust you, as of yet
Waging a war that we never thought to take up
Was it cool aid we were drinking in that red solo cup
Word of you spread like smoke
You said we were no longer such a joke
We were a force to contend with, that's what you said
We all believed you, until we started turning up dead
You put pipe bombs made of pipe dreams in our head and set them off
The ideas that dissipated with the smoke made us cough
Those promises you made guilded mistakes we now know
Vibrant colors and bright lights can't mask a ****** show
