The People's Choice

We silently watch as our nation bleeds

Warring factions of race, color, and creeds

Discontent tramples each and every town

Misinformation will bring us all down

People believe lies despite the facts

Encouraged to commit criminal acts

Why are we blind to a repeat of history

The answer to that remains a mystery

The war's not between the left and the right

The haves over the have-nots started this fight

Challenge all politicians hypocrisy

Before we witness the death of Democracy
