I love writing All around me I see a sedated nation asleep, Heavily medicated by the bait afternoon papers they read, Im getting tired of waiting to awaken the beast, Its high tempatures rising up like were baking the yeast, With bread for the revolutionaries that are waiting to feast, when we get out the oven well take all plates to the streets, Armed with cameras to catch the police breaking the peace, Because now we have a mechanism, To give the press and state a definite taste of their own medicine, They follow the few and portray us all as a mad flock, All in an edited snapshot and exagurated pressence of mobs, And when it kicks off, throw bricks so the riot squad is justified, But the real cowards have shields, bats and visor covered eyes, You know its lies when they tell you the figures, The number of protestors are definitely much bigger, And the noise of the mainstream chairmen are the sound of vultures, Picking apart the half dead carcasses of counter-cultures, You think 5 hundred grand of debt wouldnt influence you? And its not just the money its the principle too, Why should the next generation pay for your crisis, While big businessess dodge taxes and evade the law like slick, They talk of fairness everyones feeling the squeeze, while in shutdowns, endless cabinets of millionaires who got free degrees They say the recession was made by irresponsible debt, So whats the government done in response to this common threat? Charge the students more leave the poor wanting instead, Solving debt with more debts an incompetent bet, And thats not the only reason I despise the policy, Cos its not right to treat knowledge like commodity, Anger in streets the press cant describe it properly, Calling petty vandalism violence, honestly? Regarding police as the divine authority, I saw them charge with horses but they deny atrocities, Its no surprise and yet it rightly bothers me, That we value human life less than private property, Its 1984 spreading like a virus, everyones hit the lottery improperly, My lyrics laced with fury but Im staying astute, Gracing the booth with the pain of kids facing the boot, No money for our schools but we can pay for our troops, Disgracing our youth with lies displayed on the news, Its blatant abuse theyre manipulating the truth, that police brutality wont engage with the proof, Say goodbye to our jobs goodbye to our health, Might as well tighten the noose on kids bright future with no wealth..... _ Abe
