Free Thinker Truancy

It seems that everyday more sheep are being led astray
Led astray by believing everything that their sheppards say
Mayday! Mayday! I'm declaring a state of emergency
A change has got to come with some sense of urgency

We're having a free thinker truancy and lack of unity
Too many in our communities are worshipping celebrities
If you can act, rap or play football like a running back
Or perform like Mike Jack you'll be looked at as GOD in fact

We lack strong leaders from way back to give us guidance
Silence is what they're buying or they react with violence
Time and time again they've assassinated each one of them
Like they're broadcasting Adrian telling Rocky "you can't win"!!!
