I usually avoid talking politics publicly but these were the lyrics in my flow this week. I'm frustrated with the upcoming election and I feel like ALL the candidates are not worthy of leading this nation. The song projects the feeling of the people having no voice because all of the elected officials and candidates are all not worthy in my opinion. I hope they can prove me wrong.
lyrics
Broken tomorrow, broken dreams and broken now
Nothing but sorrow as I ponder on your vow
Place my tongue upon your blade and let it slide
It's a nation's suicide
Take me on your trip to nowhere
Your revered saints are billionaires
Place your noose around my neck and step aside
It's a nation's suicide
Pick your poison and take a stance
Just for fortune or for chance
Drive your nails into my hands and let me die
It's a nation's suicide
