our government


our government

our government is greedy

our government is cruel

we the people are not like them

we are who we are

ourselves

we shouldnt have to be somebodyelse 

just for someone to like us 

being liked shouldnt matter

our opinion should

what we decide forms everything in our lives

its just the government has the final ok to our long thoughts

our government wants money

while we just want freedom

money isnt everything

but family is

the government..........................
