American Religion



floss our toes with green and gold
for we forgot what we have been told
no one to guide
no one to direct
all of our air gone
no chance of breath
please excuse our ignorant styles
dragging on greed for too long of a while
our kings grab power as the peasents fade
no renegade or robin hood to save the day
no light no dark no medium to function
all is gone with our dollors destruction
sinking, like a brick in the pond
heavier debts push us downward and on
looking for a place to lay our delemas to rest
but the addiction to money keeps us under durress
as children, carefree wanderers under protection
yet as adults, no one watches our lustfull collection
dreams and ambitions, blinded by its tricks
it starts to dissapear, just for kicks
but its not funny, poverty causes our biggest problems
yet no one has the tools or the abilities to solve them
so i live my life with a mind feeling young
no matter if my story is left unsung
for when all the tragedy has come and past
my country can live in peace at last.
