"Freedom of speech" unless it offends
"God given rights" now torn to shreds
Creativity bursting at the seams
Then reality sets and kills the dream
Because we all know it's all for not
Signed in blood, our souls were bought
Deals with the devil in a three-piece suit
Our rebel yell is now on mute
A dream not worth the time
A goal to fool the blind
No reason for the rhyme
When the state of the art is on the decline
Decades of change that never align
War of words at the drop of a dime
Heroes of the youth are dead and older
Spent their prime dried of exposure
Piece by piece, a social collapse
Victim generations can't avoid the traps
Years of tears are shed by peers
Another unsung anthem falls on deaf ears
A dream not worth the time
A goal to fool the blind
No reason for the rhyme
When the state of the art is on the decline
