So we have this desire
But we live with no hope
We bleed, we cry
We turn our heads and tell these lies
What would you call an “American Dream?”
Freedom isn’t even free
We murder, we rape
We live alone and let these sorrows drape
What is “love” now-a-days?
Is there a such thing because I don’t feel it
Do you? I mean we kick back and sit
But what if our desires could be fulfilled
Us who actually have them…..
What if we took pennies for every bleeding soul
How rich would we be then?
Would we be what McCain calls “Middle Class?”
Our less than 5million a year
Or would we be just as rich
Would America finally be satisfied?
Maybe we would have enough to stop
The way the world spins so stupidly around

Live in the present but don't forget the future
