White, Red bars, Stars on a Field of Blue

Upon the serpents tongue does lies flow.
From the belly passing the heart comes deceit.
Words spoken out loud, anger becomes bread.
That poor ignorant fools fall to the ground to eat.
Lead by greed for dollar, coin, purse.
Inside the corrupted mind is forced a curse.
Selfish agendas upon the books lay.
Twisted writing like that of tails of swine.
Only to unravel with too late of time.
A disregard for treasured writes.
Forefathers foresaw the diminishing of rights.
History tells, a experienced warning.
One that is constantly left unheeded.
Sending a once strong nation into mourning.
A past to become a future,
premonition of a fall.
A nation becomes once again divided.
A nation now for one, instead of for all.
Symbols once cherished, have little hold.
Save in the hearts of some hopeful patriots.
Who still place hope in the ways of old.
Still give thought to the ground rules set.
Belief in sacred documents,  let none forget.
A whispered voice, in a maddening throng.
Those who have eyes that are blind to race.
Blind to religion, creed, hope in being kind.
Dreaming of one day all will see we are all mankind.
Such people exists among those serpents unseen.
Waiting for the right moment, in silence.
One day they too will speak aloud to all their dream.
Their weapons will be their words spoken true.
exposing the faults of those who lie.
Bring back a country under the true Red, White and Blue.
In time the nation that fights among each other.
As it had so many years before.
Will once again find love between it's sister's, brother's.
Until then we must keep hope, hold to the dream.
Keep faith in the writers of laws of the land.
Keep old glory in sight, know what she means.
Upon the serpents tongue does lies flow.
Truth is found in the hearts of patriots, stay true.
Pray for a time, that freedoms return.
A United nation, a banner of White, Red bars, Stars on a field of Blue.
