“1776”

Present a plethora of scenarios,

A burning chariot running through your stereo,

Headset in limbo, won’t partake in your fairytales,

A man on a mission, your commission and emissary failed,

I’m nonnegotiable, pawn my social and dissipate from the grid,

Sick of being taxed, government making up for their slack with a vig,

What happened to 1776?

Plenty of tricks pulled from under their sleeves,

A new order’s conceived,

The indigenous people’s refrain from attempt’s to retrieve,

Gun powder shot through barrels from the hands of cowards,

Flowers for tombstones of men that fought for mixed signals in clouds,

Puppeteers dance while strings cut loose,

Present a puppet that’s obtuse,

While preaching about a burning bush
