Corruption
Our country cannot survive this corruption.
We are losing law and order before our eyes.
We must not give in or decide to condone it.
We set ourselves up for a fall from within.
But we can still unite to take a peaceful stand.
To say, we the people will not live this way anymore.
It is not impossible, for strength is with those
Who are willing to try, willing to do what is right.
I am not talking about the vote,
They keep saying, we have no excuse not to do.
This is not support for either candidate today.
It is about we the people who must come together
Refuse this corruption with justice ignited by millions
In peaceful assembly for our country to find our way.
