2025 Contradictions

Project 2025, a tale that some have spun 
Of less government, and more to come 
Disguising rules and mandates with an ease 
Using more government the right does please

Reducing funds, saying to trim the U.S. core 
Now watch as their power grows much more 
From health to speech, their views will tread 
With heavy hands, it’s their right they said 

Contradicting the laws then to claim liberty 
With their intentions saying it’s the right to be 
Drafting freedoms, written down it’s clear 
But it’s to continue their distributing fear 

Controlling us with their very own  vision 
Promoting more, in this country of division 
To oversee us, reigning us in, and then to bind 
Are all contradictions they’ve carefully designed
