Stasis of Freedom

This sad station or stasis of education 
people over social media no relation 
this web taking over our nation

patiently waiting the debating 
America the land of sedating 
lock you up throw away the key no hesitating
 
who chose the age when you are considered to be an adult
when is it o.k. to hold a child at fault
we are nothing more than a land with a gold vault
and if you go against us prepare for the assault

I don't think those in suits really care
or the ones that wear a crown and sit in a chair
on the very top stair 
since the dawn of man there has been warfare

so I will sit back and try not to have regret
certain historical tyrants taught in school so we don't forget
but the sad truth for freedom is our children are born into debt
I guess you can call that the butterfly effect.    -TA
