A Letter To The President by kagari: 1:20am On Oct 01, 2013
Each day i sit and i wonder
Of what you promised and i shudder


I thought you said
You were different
I thought you said
The poor were your target
I thought you said
Our life's would be better
I thought you said
Only if we vote you to power
I thought you said
You grew with no shoes
And i am still thinking
We were played for the fools

I thought you said
There would be love and unity
I thought you said
There would be jobs and electricity
I thought you said
We should give you a chance
I thought you said
You understood our econimic trance
I thought you said
You were the man for the people
And i am still thinking
All i see is blood and evil

I thought you said
Why is the blood getting thicker?
I thought you said
Why is love getting thinner?
I thought you said
Where did you take grandpa?
I thought you said
Where is the truth in the lie?

I still sit but in motion
Was there any nation?


HAPPY INDEPENDENCe
