And Who Would Dare Complain?
And who would dare complain
Without a flood from heaven
Separating us from sin
Knowing some will be lost
Never to see their God again?
And who would dare complain
Without indigenous tribes
Chased by the cruelest of men
Armed with manifest destiny
Ready to take their land?
And who would dare complain
Without bombs raining down
Immoral and ruthless
Serving the ambitions of those
Living inside a fortress?
And who would dare complain
Without starving first
Walking the streets alone
Carrying a sign of mercy
Only to be blamed or ******?
And who would dare complain
Without wearing chains
Feeling the whip crack
Knowing the next day
The master will be back?
And who would dare complain
Without immortality mocking
From a grave already waiting
Because they were not buried
With those God would be taking?
Feeling blessed and a bit angry about those who are spoiled by entitlement
