Awake America

AWAKE AMERICA by JOHN M. ARRIBAS Awake America, the enemies are at and inside the gate Loyal majority not comprehending, its perilous state Vocal minorities insist on conquest, nothing less will do Socio-liberalism sold to the masses, a treasonous coup Panacea peddled to the ignorant every thing is free Pay, medicine, education, health care at no cost to thee It will be a significant cost, our freedom, our liberty Restless, ignorant and naive youths demand equality Dismissing individual talents that make us unique A destiny culminating in a future dismal and bleak Surrendering individualism means, entering a herd Rewarding everyone equally is logically absurd In the Iliad a trojan horse was gifted, as a disguise To overpower and conquer the sleeping and wise A replay is occurring, gift in this case is a notion Convincing the masses, a formula of dire erosion Socio-liberalism, handing your fate to big brother Treating us all as clones, a replica of each other Have talent, no need to hone it. rewards all the same Skilled or unskilled, industrious or patently lame All will be alike, as long as they toe the line Those that resist and defy will suffer decline General populace will be educated by big brother Enduring dictated behavior as, there is no other All of us want freedom and peace for our offsprings Being politically correct you surrender those things Being afraid to voice your opinion in fear of attack You are relinquishing your right to voice a comeback Enemies of freedom await a politically correct flinch The grand scheme to dominate you inch by inch
