Why Vote Mate

Why vote for governments That uses you That abuses you Confuses you and refuses you Why vote for governments That doesn’t respect or defend your rights And fight with all their might’s Why vote for governments that are not contrite And feel their evil doings are alright Why vote for governments That steals the meals off poor people’s plate Yes I know you can relate You lobbyist and you rich conglomerates You leaders brought this world to this state You closed equal opportunity gates You email-gate, water-gate, racial profile, hate! You collaborate to devastate by inaugurate debates And brain washing mandates You empty and launder it The treasury’s financial reserves hey wait! You vaingloriously defend your scandals eh mate Yeh! You really forced me to explashiate Against fractured cannibalistic nature politics Syndromes of “eat ah food” government’s historics Past and present, you categorize and polarize Our society for your sooooole benefits Eh why vote mate? ©Copyright August 27, 2014 by Brian Pierre-Alexander © All Rights Reserved
