Preacher man (we take no more)
Push aside your point of view
talk in confusion
hear him laugh at you
war,crime and radiation
let it crawl while the city sleeps
let them creep
and now he searches for his prey
now you're melting on your burning feet
but still people choose their way
and do nothing
...stop!
he talks- connected scars reopen
a thousand fingers reach out to you
we don't feel no contamination
keep talking- you're the hunter , im the prey
keep talking- im the preacher, you're the fool
we rebel but no words are spoken
we won't be broken , Mr.preacher man
we need no teacher
kill the preacher
death to the preacher man!

I saw this on the Social Commentary thread, I have to say I really enjoyed reading it.
I'm not sure if it was your intention, but I got a kind of grass-roots rebelliousness from this piece, especially with lines like:
"we rebel but no words are spoken
we won't be broken , Mr.preacher man"
and
"he talks- connected scars reopen
a thousand fingers reach out to you
we don't feel no contamination "
Very enjoyable! Thanks for the read.
