It’s Only a Change of Time It’s been all of these ten years But, nothing’s really changed The horror of those who kill Has, only been, rearranged! We still have those terrorists And, we all, are still at war With each other/other countries And, I just ask, “What for?” The “Freedom” thing is kinda lame While we’re slaves to the elite Those of us, who have not, unhappy Those who have it, think it’s neat. But, those thousands killed And, all of those maimed So many in, those mass graves So many graves, never to be named. We still send our Soldiers to those wars Spend lives and billions on that game Where bullets, guns, bombs and death The rich, get rich, all the same! It has been awhile, now Ten years since, they got our attention Kinda like, that Pearl Harbor Warnings, someone, forgot to mention. But, we just go on fighting And hating, our fellow man Keep making up excuses To keep going, that wartime plan. We’ll never know how many died But, they don’t really count As long as those warmongers Can add bucks, to their account!!
