Deja Vu by Andy Jarvis

History repeats itself,
Or so the saying goes.
But generations come and go,
And no ones left that knows.
All the world powers from Babylon
To the Empire of America,
Have used the sword to get their way
Not just Hitler and his swastika.

It’s the fascists that write the history
That they teach your kids in school
A sanitized version of events
They’re treating you like fools.

Some say Hitler was a good guy
He only wanted what’s best.
Germany was prospering
So why care about the rest?
He gave them all the Autobahn,
And a family car to ride
So, Hitler was a family man
He must ‘ve been good inside!

And when he burnt down his Reichstag
On a cold dark winters night
He gave them what they wished for,
Another reason for a fight.

Rid the world of the commies, they cried
The Gypsy and the Jew
But today they cry out terrorist,
And the one that’s shouting’ is you!

Where were you on that fateful day
When those towers turned to dust?
Their commander sat in 3rd grade class
Is his the face that you trust?
He says that he’s a Christian
His mission sent from heaven
I think it’s time he took a look
At Luke 6 verse 27

Slavery is alive and well,
And supporting’ your economy
In the sweat shops of the 3rd world
Tucked away where you cannot see.
And their farmers have to grow your drugs
They’re givin’ you your fix.
They’ll kill their ‘hopes’ to keep it so
The CIA and their dirty tricks.

Guns are the weapon choice of the coward
Not the heroes like they tell ya’
Billy the Kid committed homicide
Whilst his country was built on Genocide
Are these the boys you want on your side?

African American, Hispanic, Male or female
They’ll put you in their front lines
While their sons go off to Yale.
They just want to clean up the mess you see,
Put the people in their proper place
They’ll tell them their ‘America’s Finest’
And bury them in a ‘sacred’ place

When will you see the reality?
When will the light come on in your head?
When your ‘battlegrounds’ ruined beyond repair
And everyone else long dead?
What would you say to Christ on that day
If he came knocking on your door?
Would you grab your 12 gauge off the wall
And blast and scream some more?

Who’s behind things anyhow?
Who’s to blame for the things that you’ve seen?
Just open your bible and read what it says,
1st John Chapter 5 verse 19
