Fascist America

If you think this is just temporary and tomorrow all things will be good That Republicans will become loyal do the things Representatives should You are likely to be disappointed because fascism’s already here It is shrouded to keep us uncertain always wondering, living in fear The law firms we thought as distinguished are a shell of what we once admired As they’ve cowered and paid off a cretin losing that which had made us inspired Now the people can no longer trust them for the bribes have already been paid And the words which they speak have no meaning as their honor was given in trade The old schools which we cherished for centuries are now part of the new fascist rise For the lessons they’ll teach will be tainted as the People respond in surprise Now America is a police state who will kidnap and take you away ICE is masked as they punch, kick and beat you they don’t care who they take, what you say We are funding a genocide daily all the missiles are made with our hands Dropped on innocents starving in Gaza where a new Riviera is planned They have started the cheat for elections like they do almost every time Gerrymandering being accepted like a legal acceptance of crime This old story has not changed in centuries Native blood still lies under the earth In a land filled with greed, lies and hatred it was bound to allow fascist birth
