We are to blame
Location
“Citizens, brothers and sisters of the United States Of America
Today marks a victory in the history of the United States!
I am touched and I thank you all for your time and effort
Your dedication to allow me to take office as your president
Your voices today have made an impact on this great nation
Do not think you have not gone unheard”
Stop… Did I hear what I think I just heard?
Your voice? Gone unheard?
If anything, the only voice that is being heard is his.
Democracy is at its limits
Our voices grow weaker as the years go by
You choose to stand in line for a pair of Jordans that will last for months
But you refuse to stand in line to make a vote that will be in term for four years.
People approach you with a survey to make a change
Yet you refuse to do and you are the one who started the complaint
So in the end, all I can really say is
We are to blame
What is left for the young? What is the left for the old?
For the minorities, the gays, and the poor?
Nothing much so I have been told
Our future is fading away and the generation of our youth is in vain
In the land of the free of this great nation
The promises of liberty and rights
Instead we live in fear and in discrimination
We are giving up our rights for protection
Against terrorist attacks that never even happened
because we cannot learn to trust one another
We plagued our reputation of being a land of opportunity
Rupturing a creation of hate within the outside countries
And all you do is sit there in anger, but you refuse to take action yourself
With the lack of action then we might as well just surrender our rights
And live under a Dictation
Calling me out for speaking the truth?
All I can say is we are to blame!
Candidates lack motivation
Give them a reason to run
The people lack inspiration
Because we feel like we are being shunned
Global warming, poverty, pollution, discrimination, weak generation
We are damned for devastation
I am not promoting Anarchy and I am not promoting a new system
I demand for the people’s voices to be heard
Until then we are stuck with the thought of taking the blame
Because we are to blame!
We are one, we should stand together
Not in parties or in structured classes
The burdens we carry, should never be ours alone
We have gone to far and brought to shame
It is time for us to swallow our pride and shame
Could it be that we do not try hard or not try at all?
There are more questions than there are of answers
Because the answers are silent due to fear of this Nation’s wrath
If we can not do so then I don’t want this anymore
Take it all away from me,Take it away
I don’t want it anymore!
Because we are to blame!
