Presumed hunger
Premeditated situations
and pre-cooked annihilations.
Preheated eliminations,
precepts, losses, predators,
nothing changes the colors of poverty.
Chameleons are the rich ones
and they change, change color
and change again to a color they don't have.
The rich eat poverty for breakfast
so let's change directions,
change emotions,
and let's eat the rich
even though the rich are poor
in nutrients and proteins.
Since they have many colors,
we will eat them with our eyes
and season them...
and pre-cooked annihilations.
Preheated eliminations,

and change again to a color they don't have.

Conflagration
I was roused from sleep that night,
an awakening that was
like the jab of a nightmare.
With heart pounding, I wobbled
toward the door, then I stopped—
the commotion was outside.
Cautious now, I creaked it
open and sirens rushed in.
Barefoot on spiky, wet grass,
I reached the fence and tiptoed,
I felt the heat on my face
saw the skyline set aflame.
America is burning.
an awakening that was
like the jab of a nightmare.
With heart pounding, I wobbled
toward the door, then I stopped—
the commotion was outside.
Cautious now, I creaked it
open and sirens rushed in.
Barefoot on spiky, wet grass,
I reached the fence and tiptoed,
I felt the heat on my face
saw the skyline set aflame.
America is burning.

Truths we would like to hear
How refreshing would it be if we heard a politician say:
I don't believe in God and I don't believe in the protection and welfare of our citizens, their health & their safety
I plan on placing my friends in executive positions
I will pocket what funds I can get away with, but see that the rest is spent on my election
You will have no voice in my decisions any more then you ever had
You will have to accept my judgement, which you will have no choice
If I succeed in fooling the public, the public will have themselves to blame...
I don't believe in God and I don't believe in the protection and welfare of our citizens, their health & their safety
I plan on placing my friends in executive positions
I will pocket what funds I can get away with, but see that the rest is spent on my election
You will have no voice in my decisions any more then you ever had
You will have to accept my judgement, which you will have no choice

How The Mighty Had Fallen
Oh; how the mighty had fallen
Once a lion; now barely crawling
A land where rivers of wealth once flowed
Now cracked with hunger; dreams corrode
They sold our gold for a bowl of dust
Fed us lies and broke our trust
Once the Giant; tall and proud
Now we kneel; heads bowed
The king feasts while beggars wail
The throne is built on chains and nails
They buy mansions across the sea
While we drown in poverty
They raise the tax; inflate the price
Turn our sweat to sacrifice
A day's wage won’t buy a meal ...
Once a lion; now barely crawling
A land where rivers of wealth once flowed
Now cracked with hunger; dreams corrode
They sold our gold for a bowl of dust
Fed us lies and broke our trust
Once the Giant; tall and proud
Now we kneel; heads bowed
The king feasts while beggars wail
The throne is built on chains and nails
They buy mansions across the sea
While we drown in poverty
They raise the tax; inflate the price
Turn our sweat to sacrifice
A day's wage won’t buy a meal ...

Anti-Establishment
Just beyond the Verizon I foresee
Our veins will become circuitry
Mindless drones consuming the disease in denial
No original thought process in their empty minds
Just blind leading the blind
Not serving a purpose
Only purposely serving on their knees
Kill your gods
Kill your governments
Freedom exists only in the mind
The mind is a weapon you should wield
Should you choose to ignore the blueprint facade
You will succumb the the programing of a false god and government
They plot for total domination ...
Our veins will become circuitry
Mindless drones consuming the disease in denial
No original thought process in their empty minds
Just blind leading the blind
Not serving a purpose
Only purposely serving on their knees
Kill your gods
Kill your governments
Freedom exists only in the mind
The mind is a weapon you should wield
Should you choose to ignore the blueprint facade
You will succumb the the programing of a false god and government
They plot for total domination ...

Disguised Dictatorship
Reign of corruption
Democracy came to an end
Money for justice
Blinded by the government
Vultures overflying
Waiting death of society
Death by the government
Maniac ideology spreading blood!!
Dictatorship disguised
Growing up on their lies
Brainwashing decadent minds
Hidden the truth of our eyes
Hiding the murders
Guilty without guiltiness
Rotten state
Rapist of justice and liberty
Bloodstained
Wrong-way of democracy
Ruling through fear
Amorphous equality painted with blood!!

Upper-Class Low-Life
There's nothing I would do for you
You're a real scum bag
All you do is nag
Kiss my ass you goddamn fool
Go fuck yourself and I'll fuck your wife too!
The pile of shit is decorated for you to consume
Degradation
Accept the invitation
Your a shit sucking butt fucking disaster, now go to your room
Lick the dick you inherited between your ass cheeks!
Your nose is deep up corporate's ass
Are you his puppy?
I hate yuppies
Nobody gets a free pass
You look pathetic enough to...
You're a real scum bag
All you do is nag
Kiss my ass you goddamn fool
Go fuck yourself and I'll fuck your wife too!
The pile of shit is decorated for you to consume
Degradation
Accept the invitation
Your a shit sucking butt fucking disaster, now go to your room
Lick the dick you inherited between your ass cheeks!
Your nose is deep up corporate's ass
Are you his puppy?
I hate yuppies
Nobody gets a free pass

Garden of Eden
Snakes slither on concrete when the grass is cut
They appear in human form with smiling faces
Devious lies laced with deceitful eyes
Sinful minds plot on innocent souls
Presenting them with the forbidden fruit
Money, drugs, sex and fame
All enticing entities that will destroy your self identity
Take a bite of it and realize the sweet sensation isn’t worth the bitter aftertaste.
They appear in human form with smiling faces

Pharoah's
Put to the waters
not by a slave
choices are for the privileged
cake for the poor
climb from the rubble
of my mother's womb
looks as though my basket
made it to shore
is the blood on my hands yours
bastards in the blooming
make for uncomfortable truths
love a whisper in the winds
her touch a myth
gold and silver
hanging around your neck
shame her till eternal sleep
Pharoah's put us to the waters
standing on bones of my brothers and sisters
orphans and widows
kings and their greed ...
not by a slave
choices are for the privileged
cake for the poor
climb from the rubble
of my mother's womb
looks as though my basket
made it to shore
is the blood on my hands yours
bastards in the blooming
make for uncomfortable truths
love a whisper in the winds
her touch a myth
gold and silver
hanging around your neck
shame her till eternal sleep
Pharoah's put us to the waters
standing on bones of my brothers and sisters

The Gov't Wants You (Collab with AfterSexDilemma)
You come over and I'll feed you.
Then rape you and tattoo my name on you.
Insert a tracking device and chain you to me.
Register you in the government's cattle tracking system.
Use you for stud services and make lots of money off your sperm donations.
And when you're old, I'll sell all your internal organs for profit.
Scatter your ashes in my garden as fertilizer!
You the consumer are enjoying the taste of cannibalistic delight!
Then rape you and tattoo my name on you.
Insert a tracking device and chain you to me.
Register you in the government's cattle tracking system.
Use you for stud services and make lots of money off your sperm donations.
And when you're old, I'll sell all your internal organs for profit.
Scatter your ashes in my garden as fertilizer!
You the consumer are enjoying the taste of cannibalistic delight!

Little Sam
Little Sam
I am so glad that we
Get along just fine
Also we have the same
Interests
That is a good thing
Little Sam
Are you also a Christian like me
From birth to adulthood
I am dying to know
Also do you pray to God
The same way I do
Every single night
Before you go bed
Yes I do
But I am not a Christian
Little Sam
I enjoy going out with you
Today we spend our day
Together at the Eaton Centre
We walk inside the mall
While it snow outside
Also we had our healthy lunch
I am so glad that we
Get along just fine
Also we have the same
Interests
That is a good thing
Little Sam
Are you also a Christian like me
From birth to adulthood
I am dying to know
Also do you pray to God
The same way I do
Every single night
Before you go bed
Yes I do
But I am not a Christian
Little Sam
I enjoy going out with you
Today we spend our day
Together at the Eaton Centre
We walk inside the mall
While it snow outside
Also we had our healthy lunch
