For the People

Are you allowing them to turn you into sheeple? We do not live in a country that is “For the people” There seems to be no real desire to change the status quo The government plays the media like a puppet show The big businesses decide what the news will be The “reporters” just “report” what they are told, you see It seems so obvious if you open your eyes Do your own research; be a skeptic, the media lies. It seems so obvious, that they transgress We are all pawns in their game of chess They try to dumb us down with mindless reality shows To keep us quiet while the misrepresentation grows How can we sit idly by? While they continue to lie I pray for truth Who will you choose at the voting booth? I challenge you to step up and let your voice be known The joke is on us in our “battleground America” combat zone Don’t allow them to turn you into sheeple Become a country that is once again “For the People”
