Who Is Thy Friend
Who is thy friend
Who is thy friend?
Who is thy foe?
Who is pulling the strings?
And enemy, to both
In turbulent times
Of clarity; misdirection
The enemy, o’ thy enemy
In backlash; insurrection
As world war III
May be on the brink
A sleeper-cell media
Propagandas, our think
As the righteous of self
Are soldiers, misled
Infiltrate on thy neighbor
For, what they feel, offend
As free speech is expressed
With violence and destruction
Has a first strike been struck?
As moralities expulsion
Your rights, my rights
Whose rights are right?
Without respect and compassion
Your cause, contradicts
Your very right
To fight
