Question Time

There's a lot going on in the world, so I feel the need to write I'm going to give my food for thought, while the government just feed you lies I'm not dumb enough to believe a word that comes from Theresa May Believe or don't believe, we're still screwed either way We're all forced to suffer because of the actions of the Government We live in the dirty streets, nowhere near a palace like Buckingham Wages are getting lower but taxes are doubling Look at all the dirt we're shovelling We're told not to care about all the innocent kids being killed in Libya We're told not to worry about the deals going on in Syria Facebook won't allow you to change your profile picture to remember the ones who get killed in Nigeria The government will make you believe that Europe is the only place that Bombs happen Why are we told to hate a whole group of people for one's actions? We Kill each other daily, so why would I fear an enemy? How can I look forward to tomorrow when I can't clear my memory? Politicians say they'll build new houses to home the homeless and it sounds Promising But then a month later, that plan is scrapped and they're demolishing Soldiers who fought for the country Will be left homeless and made to go hungry Never will i duck the coward Donald I can't believe some actually support this force of evil Some things get lost in thoughts But he's at the golf resort He doesn't care that there are people drowning in Puerto Rico The president of the United states doesn't even support the people He doesn't care who goes without You held the door open for him just for him to show you out Being a good human being is something he doesn't know about They're going to hate me for writing this, I may end up below the ground I'd rather die speaking my mind, than some meaningless shallow rhymes I don't give a damn what a Kardashian is wearing for Valentines I care about freedom of speech and I hope someone will free Palestine I scream free Palestine and that's something some will want to kill me for If I'm laying on the ground and my blood is spilling on the floor It just means I died as a man and my message was too great I won't apologize for speaking my mind, even if this makes you hate I refuse to be quiet or stay blind Someone tell the politicians it's question time
