End of a Republic
End of a Republic
They convened in a white castle as of late,
A mere coincidence or a meeting of fate?,
Synchronized to end the republic as it were.
Wiretapping, spying, and torturing,
Founders from the grave painfully watch
Their dreams go in vain.
Once it was a sun, warming mankind,
A beam of freedom covering the globe,
Now, its Zenith scorches the world.
A republic of love becomes an empire of hate,
A leader of many transforms to an emperor of few.
The statue of liberty overturned,
And the Bill of Rights crushed.
But, a ray of hope still shining through.
They convened in a white castle as of late,
A mere coincidence or a meeting of fate?,
Synchronized to end the republic as it were.
Wiretapping, spying, and torturing,
Founders from the grave painfully watch
Their dreams go in vain.
Once it was a sun, warming mankind,
A beam of freedom covering the globe,
Now, its Zenith scorches the world.
A republic of love becomes an empire of hate,
A leader of many transforms to an emperor of few.
The statue of liberty overturned,
And the Bill of Rights crushed.
But, a ray of hope still shining through.
