American Apathy Or My Political Ambition

You sit there
You try not to stare
But you are aware

The world is burning down
All you do is frown

A man in a slick suit
Is talking to you
You know you are one of the lucky few
But the way that suit
The way that suit makes him look like he has a clue

I care
Do not feed me that shit

You want them to see the world just like you

I want to see myself
Clearly
In the sunlight
In the moonlight

Today I was too weak to fight
But tomorrow you had better watch out
Be prepared for a heavyweight bout

I know,
15 rounds and a draw

You just sit there
You try not to stare
But you are aware
