Men, women and children will be dying in the ghetto, If you take away our resources, Hospitals, Education, Healthcare for the Elderly, Those programs are the core of our community,
Our hold foundation will be shattered, If you take away our government funds
You act as if, it doesn’t matter
That money was helping us to survive-Feeding our community-Keeping our children and Seniors alive-If you cut our budget it will surely hurt us-Our children will suffer the most,
To the people, You made a promise, That you would not betray us, You advocated in your campaigns
You made a promise,
You would fix the budget,
Save our State from destruction and shame
Tax payers voted, the count is in
You did win
Now it’s time, for you to begin.
But NO!
You used us, like all the others Politician’sWho reigned before you?You’re just playin a character roleSomething that is easy for you to do,Just a part to play
Doin it the Hollywood way,Political figures, they all tell lies,Lie, cheat and steal just to get you on their sideWhen they win, well its too late then,
The raft of the new regime,Just walked in,You’re no better than the terrorists,
You’re behavior is no different-Your hurting your own people But, you feel no remorse,
Cutting this program
Cutting that program,
Maybe you didn’t notice,
The homeless people in the street,
Sleeping in boxes, corners, alleys Anywhere they think is safe,
Sometimes taking up the blockAll you see is miles of shopping carts
This is our country
Why is this happening?
