I wrote this for my website www.soulsgate.com
but I was so moved to write this that I felt
it needed to be share here too.

No More Lies

No more.
No more lies.
Propaganda, I despise.
You promised compassion.
You were full of shit.
It's time to do something baby,
do something 'bout it.

You said that no child
would get left behind,
again you lied.
Homeless are laying
in the street, they
cannot eat and you don't care.
People can't find a job
cos they've all been
outsourced AND THE
CORPORATIONS BEHIND IT
HAVE ALL BEEN GIVEN
BIG TAX BREAKS.

You reach into the churches.
You rally the masses.
You tell them you must
win in the name of God.
You say you represent
the common man. I have
news for you, George W. Bush,
I LIVE A LIFE THAT YOU
WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND.

You will never understand
what it is like to believe
a lie and finally have
your eyes opened to
reveal the ugly truth-
OUR LEADERS WERE BORN
WITH SILVER SPOONS IN
THEIR MOUTHS AND PLAYED
WITH GOLDEN RATTLES.
THEY GREW UP AND PLAY
WITH HUMAN LIVES
with their lies.

A Fact- Almost ALL US Presidents are MILLIONAIRES.
Almost all of our congressmen and senators
are MILLIONAIRES too!
The rich run our lives and pretend they care about us
BUT THEY HAVE NO IDEA OF THE STRUGGLES WE GO THRU.
