Perspective Matters

Once long ago

There was

A time when one could be free

This isn't

An oppressive regime

It would fall under

The free people's speech

Individuality as the norm

And we deny

Boxing others into stereotypes

We won't stop

Our quest for happiness

Our government controls

Only what we let it

A charity gets

The support of many in power

Fascism has

Been crumbling for a long time

Freedom has

Reigned for a centuries

The men in our government have

Respected us

And haven't

Hurt us

Shadow governments

Don't exist

Privacy of thought

Is ours and ours alone

Nothing

Will stop us

Our government

Gave us a truly amazing life

God

Bless us


No....Someone broke it


Bless us

God

Gave us a truly amazing life

Our government

Will stop us

Nothing

Is ours and ours alone

Privacy of thought

Doesn't exist

Shadow governments

Hurt us

And haven't 

Respected us

The men in our government have

Reigned for centuries

Freedom has

Been crumbling for a long time

An oppressive regime
