We have a platform called social, economic, and political relief
But we must listen and move forward ourselves
We've trusted those with no eyes to deviate paths for and from us
So we stand holding the bag of promises we never made them keep
I put you here, we put you here
So yes you should respond to our critical demands
Where are our policies as this ship slowly sinks
We stare at the bags of promises you gave us
Give them back!
We built this
But you want to tear it down because your ego has a mind of it's own
And this "constitutional republic" represents its self as a "democracy"
Yet clearly a "plutocracy" and "oligarchy"
Remember people.....
Stop letting promises that will never be sought get away
Its complete disgrace in the face of those civilized enough to know its implications
Lobby for and enforce justified statutes and laws by your own admission
READ THIS NOW
Do something
or something could be done to you
