It's time we the people stood up on our hind legs and became pit bulls to those we elected to serve us in Washington. It has been too long since we have done that. They are not our royalty.
Congress was Elected By Franklin Price 1/23/2019 Congress was elected For the people of their state To follow selfish party lines, Degrades this country's fate Be seated there because you care Listen to constituents Respond only to, who elected you, Not inconsequential incidents There as a representative Not as one who stands alone Not as a prince or princess Who may ascend unto the throne Don't think you are George Washington Whom many wanted as the king He refused, what makes you think, We will bow and kiss your ring? The populous is waking up No longer buying what you sell Start fighting for your people Or they'll ring your ending bell
