AMNESIA:



speak dummy, don't hold your peace

don't let others decide for you, learn to stand

on your own two feet

opting to sit on the sidelines and let others think for you

is it really the right thing to do?

what are you afraid of, you think your voice doesn't count?

think your two cents won't add up to the right amount

you complain about the system and don't like

how the government is ran

when things go wrong, you're quick to point the finger

at the next man

many a men have died for you to exercise your right to vote

you open your mouth, but it's his/her words that were spoke

you're unhappy with our leader for the next four years

just because you thought if you voiced your opinion

it would fall on deaf ears

jobs are hard to find and the economy is fucked

while you sit in the laps of the government and just

bitch about the luck

this is what happens when you let your neighbor decide

it doesn't matter anyway because you'tre just along for the ride





GEMINI STAR:

as a people, we often say that we want more

but end up settling for less

but those are our thoughts, who really would've guessed?

we sit motionless like dummies, can't ever hear em

just mere puppets, we can spew our views,

but not wise enough to share em

it's like we're discontented from tremendous taxes,

but we'll still be okay

just as long as I get my check on Thursday

our so called leaders rule with the iron hand

funding our government, military defense and high economic plans

he takes that same hand and shoves it up our asses

for his own pleasure

and it gets no better beyond such drastic measures

unless we write letters

our mouths are wide open, but nothing comes out

folks see Election Day as a joke, get out!!

we get pulled by the strings and look to see what conformity brings

when our basic concerns are rims, jeans and gold rings

well here's a pair of pants I think that fits

it's called "get up and be heard" for your benefit

just simply contribute your words and thoughts....go to the polls

and realize the powers you possess now plays a dominant role





Just a public service announcement to say that your voice does count.

VOTE 2006, although this piece was done in 2004.
