System Of Decay (Mild Language)

by Jersey D Gibson

The ongoing pattern,
rotten to the core.
The same damn lie told,
I can't take anymore.

Why do all these things,
gotta be this way?
We don't always have to follow,
this system of decay.

The putrid sound,
that is our demise.
We stand and applaud,
and ask for a reprise.

Can't take this filth,
and eat it with a grin.
had enough of this shit,
the change has got to begin.

-The system of decay
tumbles ever down.
When will the end
ever be found?
Voted with approval,
it can't be ousted.
The long-burning fire,
that needs to be doused.-

-The final corruption,
the spreading disease.
But, don't worry folks!
just do as you please.
Your once winning propeganda,
has now been broken.
The truth is now known,
the people have spoken.-
