Divide
United We Stand,
Divided We Fall.
The canyon between us
will slaughter us all.
Can't you see
the man up there?
A puppet on strings,
dancing unaware.
completely unaware
the depth of tragedies
that have occurred
before the formalities.
Do you care for us?
Or is it all for you?
Our country shattering in pieces.
What will you do?
Another speech,
To check a box?
Inconveniences to form
your scripted talks.
We need a leader,
one far more adept.
One for the people,
one who can go up steps.
This ain't an attack
but things need to change
my home is dying
as things become strange.
Home of the Brave
is what they all say
but all I see are cowards
waiting to run away.
Stand up for your land
or we'll crumble before
each angry group
begging to start a war...
