Thats Politics
Politics what does this even mean?
We watch these debates but truth isn't seen
We see one empty promise after another
We see deception between each democratic,diplomatic brother
foreign policy border control stirring controversy
yet Americans being beheaded on the web pervertedly
Watching the world collapse one act of terrorism at a time
Cops killing people before convicted of any crime
Yet we fight over who can represent us the best
I say put old school politics to rest
We became a nation that supports foreign before homegrown
Watch military vets get denied government assistance after limbs were blown
blown away fighting for foreign democracy
politicians excepting kickbacks nothing but hipocracy
We have a man who states only one true factor in his campaign
Make America great again jump on the winning trump train
Clinton has no clue what she will even to do for this country
Put her in office with evil leaders stating I dare you to confront me
Why have one leader in a nation that praises unity
Cant we have ourselves a group of liberals protecting each community
instead we are forced to choose a side choose one woman or man
But neither will admit everyone needs a helping hand
Debating about who hands are larger than the next
Social media trapping americans into government monitored text
They set us up like minions in their digital world with access to the web
Then threaten us with leadership of a bush brother named Jeb
What has this country done lately besides grow in population
Our country is failing we are becoming a laughed at nation
When were we truly great how could we even measure
Every founding moment was driven in seek of treasure
We have cheated, stolen killed innocent people for gains
Then act as we are politically correct when sweeping away the remains
One building after another filled with corporate power and money
What we need is relief for those who already reside in this country
Maybe if they spent a moment looking at the facts already noted
They wouldn't pick the leader who lies, cheats steals to get voted
Stop asking these candidates what they can do to make us greater
Truth is politicians are people who love control of each classified crater
Once this country learns that every nation is truly in the same boat
Then and only then would unity gain them a more unified meaningful vote
Instead our borders are compromised flooded without a trace
Stop allowing our countries fate to be decided by a presidential race
That's Politics
