Sleeping Wide Awake
People wonder why crime rises?
Why death rates climb?
Let me explain.
It will only take a moments time.
The world we're living in,
is a sad one indeed.
Suddenly everyone is entitled.
And respect, replaced with greed.
Once sane minded individuals.
Now part of the flock.
People that once stood for something.
Now, only sit and gawk!
Replacing logical thought,
with the propaganda wide spread.
You become another sheep,
in the mass herd being lead.
Me and mine will be fine.
Our upbringing undeterred.
Either wake up, or dont call me.
When the wolves attack the herd.
