We are all just a number in the government’s eyes.
Just a social number, no one knows where the security lies.
We are the people, yet we have no say
In what goes on from day to day.
We live our lives in crime and passion
Sending our boys to die, old fashion.
Nouvelle mode: everyone is a number.
No names or personalities,
No faces. Random heart places.
Misdeeds and dishonesty,
Who is here for us whole-heartedly?
United we stand,
We have fallen victim to the break of the hand.
Watch as the rich get rich and the poor get poor,
No dollar to hand out, no more, no more.
We are the free,
Yet we are chained despite our destiny.
We are all just a number in the government’s eyes.
A social number, no one knows where the security lies.
Thank you for your comment. I would love to have to revisit. Also, thank you for the suggestion. I'll check those out.

ReplyDeleteYes, the current atmosphere is somewhat grim as you write. But the light of hope in the young men and women like you can make all of us walking, treading through the bushes.
