The longer the wait,
The long it's hard to stand,
The east is the thin green minority
The west is the meaty majority
A group with a plague lives on
The fear of a hidden leader
Yet our leaders are con artists
Smoking racism
Unnecessary wars
Crossing their fingers behind our back
A system like this never lasts
So what will be the new one?
A question that needs to be carried like a second child
Careful and well thought out
A second chance, a second life, a second day
Just to make a utopia
To make a real, authentic life form
A better cry and grin
A natural fall
Because a new one could always bring less distress
Or more fire in a civilian's address
