Warning: Wake Up!
What do you do when no one listens
and all the doors are slammed in your face?
It’s such a disgrace to have forgotten our history
what a sin it is to be forsaken
When your voice is lost
and all you’re left with are your thoughts
feelings of loneliness start to creep inside
the wounds cut deep
Wish I could have done more for him
but how is one so young
supposed to handle something
so tragically wrong?
Now we’re at world war three
as I predicted back in ‘93 it would be
But in their own selfish demise
they turn a blind’s eye
just as they’ve done so many times
Don’t you see we are at war
with ourselves when we fight
against someone else?
Open your eyes to all the lies
being told and the scams being sold
Insurance, there’s no such thing
and the illegal taxation
of our nation has caused
so much devastation
Come out of denial so we can smile
When are people going to listen
and head the warnings?
A change is coming
and soon we will know
the answers to all the why’s
and soon the blind will see
then everyone will be sorry
they ever doubted me
Please, stop killing me!
