Plead for Justice
Who are you world
and what do you
want from me?
I was not born
to please you
Living amongst you
doesn't mean I have
to become your guinea pig
I don't want to be
a part of your contest
playing by the rules
of your malpractice
Asking for my undivided
attention is asking me
to be a fool to your fumigation
I catch on easily
to those whom
try to steer me
in the wrong direction
Politics is a religion
to those that practice it
When I vote, I'm playing
the lottery
I don't know if I
get rich or remain poor
The same doesn't apply
to you, you win a lifetime
million dollar jackpot
of the peoples money
I plead to the
pledge of allegiance
of your conscience
and my own flag
that is remembered
once a year
