The Beginning of the End

You know that it’s the
Beginning of the end
When the capital of the United States
Was siege by a gang of protestors
Who was willing to do anything
To get their point across
Which we’ve seen happen in 
Other countries, not the U.S.A
It’s the beginning of the end
When senators viciously attacked
Each other, Some took an oath
To protect this country, but found
Themselves involved in beginning of a downfall
The violence sending out shock waves out
Around the world
You know it’s the beginning of the end
When people prefer war instead
Of peace, and no one wants to
Follow an order to help save lives
From a virus that seems to be man made
There are laws in this country
And in life, that you have to
Abide by, because everyone has
To answer to a higher up, no exceptions
You know it’s the beginning of the end
When your thoughts and opinions 
Even your freedom of speech  is challenged
Also your right to vote
With that being said
When another country can try
To dictate what happens in 
Your country, is an ending
From all that has happen
This country will never be the same
Let's pray
