Statues, Not You Choose
HISTORY CHANGING IN THE MAKING
A very touchy subject now
Who is behind this movement?
The hate they build inside themselves
say history should be changed
They'll tear this country all apart
till history's rearranged
Hide the truth from everyone
The good, the bad whatever
Tell your children anything
What's in the books? (was never)
Somewhere down a highway
a billboard spewing hate
Denouncing those once honorable
and telling of their fate
Within a decade (maybe two)
things won't be the same
Pictures of a President
you will not learn the name
Statues? Maybe Marxis ones
considered good, not bad
Will surely rise throughout the land
no arguments? How sad
