Ode To Liberty

The dream was not a vision

Or some preminition like we were told

It was no figment of the imagination

To prove that we could be bought or sold

The doctor of the dimond run

Could be revealed to the intellegent

But this is what I resent

Who cares for the ignorent, the intellegent

The synics approch was mean

Who cares for anything in this whole wide world

Except me

And this opinion must not confuse the issue

My appearence, my condition, or state of delivery

I am stating the obvious

This is a protest

There must me a collusion

This is no shakespearean speach

This is a statement

Made by one who can not practice what he preaches

The statue of liberty

Has engraved on its wall

Give me your poor, give me your needy

Give me them all

We need something like this

For this world to coexist

It would be so easy

To act so pretensious

To act as if it was hepocracy

To act condisending

When in fact its the world were mending

And thats why I cant relax

Cause inside my coat its a pistol that I pack

We must beware of a suprise neuclear attack

We must be ready to strike back

Im not pretending

Our defense needs clearly mending

We must leave those standing

Forget the third world is ending

Is starving, is crying

Is desolate, is oh so late

I would dearly love to return

Through a mirror in twenty years

And learn what the future has in store for us

And if I learned that we lost

And there was no hope

For those that fight

I would turn to drink

And drink is drugs

And drugs would help me sink

And like of boat, I float

I sail out to the sky

To the universe and back

Maybe to give it another try

I dont know why, why jack

Just to confirm our father

Just to learn, just to heal us
