Stop Government Abuse

 Silenced voices tortured in the night
 Tears fall like rain, hidden from sight
 Overlooked dreams crushed under the weight
 Power misused, they dictate our fate

 Government evidence put to a flame
 Openly denied they put you to shame
 Voices united in a chorus of change
 Echoes of justice need to rearrange 
 Rise against shadows that darken the way
 Never surrender, your convictions must stay
 Move towards freedom, let truth be our guide
 Every soul matters, we won’t let it slide.
 Now is the moment, our spirits can’t break
 Together we must stand for our future’s sake

 Against the tyranny of those who suppress
 Blood spilled all over without tenderness
 Under a flag where all should be united
 See the real truth in a Country divided
 Every citizen needs to stand up and fight it

Great piece, Brian Davey. They say change starts with us, the government. We are the people. Let's keep on with the fight. I Am
