POLITICAL GAMES
Tyrants in their numerous colors bare down on us like brimstones,
Strip us off our rights and hit us critically down to the depth of our bones,
Without being considerate of the consequences for their distinguished inhumane action,
They turn the political background of a nation into a game of leisure and relaxation.
They act abysmal during their lengthy terms,
So impossible to reason with while wallowing in their scams,
Absurd rules and regulations all the time,
Always milking helpless citizens off their every dime.
With nobody to stop this madness,
People ready to fight don't want to play it careless,
Nobody wants to be a pawn in this silly game of chess,
While some sit back and stay mute in the unfolding of the mess.
Don't be deceived into being bait,
The leader you trust could give you up to the enemy laying in wait,
They would act like they're all trying their best when you start getting the blame,
Then you would realize these whole fracas is nothing but a technical political game.
