Poem
We sold our freedoms for Big Macs, big stacks of crack, and bottles of Jack This mess is wack and in fact I'm totally done Havin' fun with the lines I've spun We want to sit here and whine and moan And groan while we play with our phones We're nothing but drones and clones Bleeding out over the bones of our ancestors We don't like the shape the world is in But are the masses getting off their booties Nah but as soon as as a new iPhone comes out We get out the fastest While fascist dictators blast us And I'm the Christoph But I'm so pissed off That I could list off All the things wrong with this world When lies and retorts are hurled This isn't the way things are supposed to be And I'm led to believe I'm free Shit, NSA already knows the lines I'm writin' And we're out here fightin' Over the latest celebrity newspapers When the government makes off like capers We can't see above the skyscrapers Everything tapers We're too busy feedin' kids this rubbish Because it's important to fit in And sit in with all the cool kids But these are fool bids Makin' new generations The foolish leaders of nations Let's just cut the funds off from the schools And prioritize learning multiple choice answers This is a gosh darn cancer Because these kids grow up without actual knowledge And I'm just another dancer Looking for what is right We're supposed to epitomize And legitimize the spies and lies Like flies droppin' from the skies While the land denies That there is a fundamental problem But we're too busy sittin' on the couch to care Becomin' freedom fighters on the weekend Only to go back to our daily hum drum lives And forget the strife that we strive to stifle While armies march with rifles We're too busy tappin' away on Facebook And they took us for fools Because the schools damn sure don't care Where are all the minute men To take out the the senate when It's nothing but a hall of corruption Where is the eruption Just tell me Where is your anger now?
