They Bled, We Moan

I hate what I see I hate what we’ve become Squeeze the poorest on poor street So the rich have more fun. Seeing homeless soldiers on the street The cash that I have I give What the hell have we become When a veteran needs this to live? I hate the power and I hate it’s greed I have no words for Johnson He’s brought the poor and the weak to their knees I hate what we are Me, me, me,me,me,me! People who are suffering right now. No money, no hope. A broken society. We grieve for our lost ones. We should not have to grieve for the lives we live! Our ancestors fought and died for their beliefs. We just change channels when we don’t like what see. I hate what we’ve become. For God’s sake, what the fu#k are we?
