This is the fall of,
all of,
our nation,
a hypocrisy,
in the making,
creating,
an empire,
built on lies.

Everyone can see,
what I see,
your lying,
to your country,
and you're no leader,
you're a coward,
this is,
your final hour.

You've made an abomination,
of our once all powerful nation.
We built it up from the ground,
just for you to tear it down.

Fighting overseas for oil,
fighting on enemy soil.
Fighting for what you call "peace",
this isn't peace, and it must cease.

We must,
all must speak,
challenge,
the power.
Fight,
for the rights,
and stop,
all this evil.

In the Tree of Hypocrisy,
the roots,
of damnation,
pass on,
through us.
As hypnotized,
children say,
"In God We Trust."
