Razor wire
\nAnd robocops
\nThats the life thats guaranteed
\nThe planet reeling
\nFrom the oil
\nThe coal
\nThe fracking
\nYES Indeed<\/p>\n
The thugs
\nThe Dapla security
\nPaid with dirty oil money
\nAMerica land of the free
\nOil pipes leaking
\nConstantly<\/p>\n
This is the future
\nThanks to you
\nDictatorship
\nFrom the corporates who
\nTell the government
\nWhat to do<\/p>\n
It isnt ISIS
\nIts not IRAN
\nAnd its not RUSSIA
\nIts another man
\nAn american corporate CEO
\nWho if there’s a leak
\nWont want to know<\/p>\n
When the water is black
\nLike FLINT then we
\nCan buy bottled water
\nFrom Nestle who be
\nReady to Sell at the
\nHighest cost
\nDemocracy is all but lost<\/p>\n
I am an elder
\nA victim too
\nI am veteran
\nWho knows what to do
\nI am just human
\nI live here
\nKnocked to the ground
\nAnd living the fear<\/p>\n
Taized till my heart
\nIs paining me
\nAnd maced in the face
\nIn the land of the free<\/p>\n
I fought in Iraq
\nThe shock and the awe
\nAnd returned home
\nBut whatever for<\/p>\n
The country I risked my life for
\nCares
\nSo little for me
\nDespite all its prayers<\/p>\n
Corruption is rife
\nUs veterans we
\nAre tossed in the streets
\nFor all to see<\/p>\n
We beg On the sidewalk
\nAnd people have spat
\nIn my face like the mace
\nI know where I am at<\/p>\n
If tHis is freedom
\nIf this is life
\nI want no more
\nOf this corporate strife<\/p>\n
These
\nDAPL robocops
\nWhere were they
\nWhen I was in IRAQ
\nOn patrol everyday<\/p>\n
Mates being blown up
\nPeople on fire
\nNot all that different
\nFrom this razor wire<\/p>\n
People in prayer
\nUnArmed In the snow
\nBeaten with batons
\nNo where to go<\/p>\n
These are the brave men
\nThe robocop brigade
\nAs we lay on the field
\nNo one comes to our aid<\/p>\n
They tread on us yea
\nLike shit under their shoes
\nWe know now
\nwe really have nothing to lose<\/p>\n
Treaty land means nothing to the oil men
\nNothing at all neither do any of us<\/p>\n
We may as well due in the snow <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
