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
