Wilted Flowers

Wilted Flowers What’s happened to Justice and speaking truth to power When people protested With a peace sign and flower Yes times are changing Evil has invaded thoughts The shifting of power In madness you’re caught Now you attack each other It seems so black and white The poor bow to the rich Things have shifted far right Neighbors fighting neighbors You believe it’s fake news Instead of trusting your eyes A rampant liar you choose What’s happened to Justice And speaking truth to power When people protested with a peace sign and flower Now people are abducted Put on planes and sent away placed in foreign prisons is that the American way Allies are unfriended Compassion not a trace World order upside down I don’t recognize this place Freedoms sacrificed All to own the Libs A toddler holds the crown While you’re stabbed in the ribs Do you feel the sadness A shift in the sands No more coequal government power held in his hands What’s happened to Justice and speaking truth to power When people protested with a peace sign and flower Don’t sleep while it burns Your country can be great Stand up to tyranny before it’s too late.
