To the Leader of Our Country
Dear Sir, what am I to do
to defend myself for trusting you
it hurts me to feel so betrayed
by someone i elected on election day
You were given everything you needed
and you squandered it all finally defeated
we begged and pleaded and you promised us change
but some how you only maanaged to get a bad name
perhaps you don't know the damage you've done
fighting important battles, having not won
you have failed your for fathers
Fredrick Douglas, Martin Luther King, George Washington. John F. Kennedy
when as a President you imitated a weakling
and you wonder why your base was leaving
could it be, they felt stabbed in the back
it's because you retreat in the face of attach
many things we fought for
and hoped you that you'd make a stand
monuments of your failures
you played right into their hands
and i ,so ashamed almost to the point of tears
because i prayed that these would be better years
i don't care if you run again or not
i won't vote for you, for the treatment we got
why this letter so promptly today
because our government is being given away
how rich will they make you i have'nt a clue
but one things for sure, i'm through with you
