Who Is Killing Our Nation

Our country is full of hypocrites 
who stand up against nothing and bend over for everything 
the peoples amendments pushing European agendas upon us for change 
towards liberal law in our downfall
 
Unto our sovereignty 
against our wills those who care 
as a section of good standing people
the biggest joke selling of our forestry 
Then robbing fish and destroying peoples lively hood 
quotas on catches 
now they talk of penalty points more tax revenue
is all you hear 
now they are taxing dogs though a chip 
next it will be cats and pet hamsters

Our oil and gas just given away freely 
even our ores owned by the state 
is robbed from under our noses 
dirty beggars do they think we are blind 

Who is to answer the normal Irish persons call.
forcing our country into years of recession
all you hear all the time cuts cuts cuts 
now they intend to make slaves of the unemployed 
those with highly qualified professions 
schemes that are a laugh working for peanuts 
jobs available have now vanished into these sectors 

The homeless has risen 
People thrown out of their homes even families
in order to pay of gambling debts they cut everyones wages 
bailing out banks the biggest joke of all times
the new world order is taking shape 
next they will demand us to take the chip
mark of the beast 
 
Crooked minsters getting handshakes
some role models they are to follow 
judges have the power over them roll
meaning roaring out loud laughing 
yet nothing has been done 

Crossing palms thirty pieces of silver
behind your mask is faceless  
removing our religious beliefs
Judas sells us out 

We all stand for what is morally right 
our children's future 
water now an issue even most of it is poison 
they are forcing people into a corner 
grants in art among'st many others cut e,t,c 
the list has no end

What the brave men of 1916 died for 
they fought against corruption and thief's 
to believe in honesty as brothers and sisters 
Stood against tyrants 
who tried to rob us of our dignity,lands and rights 
as humans to be equal as men  
considered in our past as dogs 
shame on your branding irons 
as world powers turned their backs on us 

 
Sold as slaves of little worth 
Removing the Vatican embassy it hurt me deeply 
from our green land our church of divine mercy 
seal of our faith I am a Catholic 
ludicrous what has been done unto us 
foundations of our Father's sons 
destroyed selling of all our rights

Worse still 
one's euro is not equal 
must be run upside down 
as I see a class system in place 
we are branded part of the pigs 
by foreign bodies operating in control 
who actually think they are better than us  

As our ancestors blood lies upon this ground 
they would turn in their graves in disgust 
ashes of burning flames 
spirit always sees hope comfort of suffering injustices 
Our government in power is a standing joke

People need to awaken and smell the roses
for their children's sake if no one else
see what is sacred to us  
sick lying on trolleys for days 

In Donegal we travel to Dublin 
where the majority of cancer wards are housed
strangely none are up north isolated we are 
hundreds of miles the sick have to travel to get treated
we should have an air lift

 
Even our roads have no cats eyes 
in a wet stormy night rain bouncing of the road
times two cars meet unable to see a white line 
safety wise dangerous so where does the car revenue go 

Not even a railway service to link us 
for trade purposes 
we truly are forgotten as a county 
why is that I wonder
being an Irish national I seek answers 
to the circus running our country into the ground
