Cadence of protest by Michael Hall

War machines roll off assembly lines

profits stashed in oversea accounts

palms greased by puppet ploy toys

the red white and blue stained in innocent blood is raised and they pray God bless this

 

Nations consumed like a locust gorging in a field of ripe golden corn

military bases dot the earth like acne gone berserk

gullible kid soldiers sacrificed for the markets  of  empire

who kill and die for the sake of a buck and a recruiters lie

 

As soon the child learns, tour after tour he must endure and he is subject to extension or stop loss policy

what was told to dupe he finds too late a lie and now no way out from the crime

and this is the way of war and those who learn the truth do so in silence

come home son, it's  not the same nor ever will be again

 

For what you did over there you found out

they are not terrorists, insurgents,radicals nor evil extremists with tails

they are human beings, they are mothers and fathers sons and daughters

they defend their land, their homes, and in their shoes, you would do the same

 

But don't shed a tear

its not they're american or even white-skinned allies

and its all right ma, we can do what we want to since we do it for God, glory and country

freedom and democracy we lie to ourselves, for we no longer have those even at home

those holy names are depleted,steeped in hypocrisy, double-standards and deception

 

Politicians bleat their masters call

pied pier from the cloak and dagger board room

mouthpiece msm spins the bs until you are queasy

and if they attack your methods cry out tried and true; ANTI-SEMITISM!!!

 

Black flights by black hearts to illegally kidnap and assassinate those who refuse to buckle

taken to unsavory places where torture is a task paid for by the shekel and dollar

untried and uncharged the innocent and guilty treated by the american Inquisition and israeli prisons

presidents lie,the citizens moos,few stand up and the acquiesce of the silence from injustice is an abomination

 

Yankee and israeli drones murder men and women without dissension nor care by saturation bombing

landmines and guns sold to warlords who take a bribe and do what they're told with opium pay-offs

dimes tossed into prison ghettos, cia assassinates,constitution nullified

and it tears my soul for the injustice of psychosis  narcissistic jingoism

 

When i was at the wailing wall below the noble sanctuary

i should have stood tall wearing a kippah and keffiyeh

screaming at the top my lungs: "Free Palestine-Free the Palestinians

ONE Person-ONE Vote-ONE Nation" over and over until they stopped me

 

But i was afraid

i was outnumbered, they had guns,

i did not step up to the plate and hit a homer

but i will be back and i swear by hanthala i will!
