Chaos

Chaos, Chaos is the theme of the day
The ignorance of man is causing dismay 
Morals and values are thought of no more
Wisdom and reason has been shoved out the door.
Leadership is strengthening with a strong iron hand
To bring disorder and chaos upon this great land
Many are blinded by this show of force
but trust me my friend it will only get worse
Do not put your trust in these men 
We are the people and we must take a stand
More and more people continue each day 
to be fooled  by the lies and the moral decay.
The press is monitored while churches are scorned
And innocent lives are not allowed to be born
Open your eyes people and look all around
the world we live in is no longer sound

Enjoyable story that rings true. I think people see the world through different lenses, and when the lenses are free or subsidized, the view is unfortunately different.
