Before Its Too Late

With all the tragedies striking all around the world,even when given a date
People seem to be like idiots just waiting till its too late
No time to help others, feed hungry children,no time to stop racism
Only time to host elaborate parties,fly on a whim,operate off shores accounts

The greatest battle we all must face is to realize that our government is ruined
That politicians have all turned to committing the most vile evils, the love of greed
As monies disappear and evaporate into "Pork Belly Accounts" unseen
Our children education is on the verge of existence,yet we pretend....

That all the things the constitution stood for is now being ignored,ridiculed,or rewritten
The right to "free" speech,bear arms,the right to an education,the right to assemble
Everything we take for "granted" is now being called a privilege...

America  take a stand and use your voice let your actions speak!
Did you know that if government declares a state of emergency 
the military can take over the police force?

We could be looking at a modern day hostage situation with us,the Americans being
held captive!! Wake up and investigate 

Do you trust your government?
