The day that I knew that war was real
was a day I will never forget
aired lived on international television
2,993 deaths
murdered by our own weapons
commercial airliner jets
The day that I knew that war was real
was the day that it hit home
The day that I knew that war was real
was the day we were the target

2007
2007
Give and take
subjected lives
The crave for war
never dies
Humans as trade
a nations investment
Misguided warfare
only fueling resentment
Excused target
Islamic Terroism
Blind devotion
a soldiers heroism
Political interference
a foreign civil war
the recurring question,
What are we fighting for?
Imposing values of corrupt politicians
only further enraging a timeless confliction

Foreclosure
As Wall Street crashes
Main Street is left in ashes
Burning homes
that the bank now owns
no hope for loans
Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac
corruption
with government back
Near Trillion dollar bailout plans
to aid investors
and those in foreign lands
The American consumer needs to spend
ease their fear of the crisis at hand
Too little, too late
a topic for debate
We didn't have time to wait.

Fuck Me If I'm Wrong
Fuck the world and it's thick fog of ignorance!
Fuck stupid people who have no tolerance.
Fuck hatred and fuck greed!
Fuck everyone who can't see
that diversity is what we need.
Fuck everybody that is stuck on their cloud.
Fuck people who fear change because they're too proud.
Fuck genocide and fuck religious war.
Fuck all those who think they know
what we are fighting for.
Fuck the homophobic and fuck all the racists.
Fuck airport security for "profiling" terroists.
Fuck people who claim to be accepting.
Fuck the people who look in the other direction.
Fuck religious leaders and fuck politicians.
Fuck muslim extremists and trigger happy christians.
Fuck the chosens ones who call themselves the elite.
Fuck all religious activists
who don't practice what they preach.
Fuck anybody who is offended by this.
Fuck you all,

Fuck it all, we have to get along!

Fuck me if I'm wrong!
