Such conflict is truly preposterous;
Yet every conversation is left unratified;
I’m not a politician but I’m the connection,
Star-link is a very special set of eyes,
observing the very motion of the world;
It is spinning the wrong way;
I warn you. America is sleepwalking into World War 3.
Distracted and we shouldn’t be;
Inflation, high prices, stock shortages;
These are the weak bones of our economy;
Need some jobs? Send an electric shock;
Throughout every country an explosion,
knocking down civilized society;
Nuclear jump start,
as every single piece simply falls apart;
I warn you. America is sleepwalking into World War 3.
If we don’t stop for a moment
reread some dusty history books,
there will be no moments left to record;
Evolution, innovation, compassion;
These should matter most. However,
influence can redefine the future.
I warn you. America is sleepwalking into World War 3.
