Pawn E-4

Brent J.W. Foreman 1983 (Bremerton)



It's a tragedy we had to see,
the world lost at all costs.
As protest ta f*ck cops
set fires to store fronts by Molotov's.
It's like f*ck ma and pops.
The street mob school of hard knocks
money backed by democrats
and political backdrops.
As media giants promote
black violence and new age tyrants,
the whites are silenced.
The corruption dismissal a congressional missile
to quiet the riots and those with opposing issue.
So grab your pistol while the right still with you
and listen to these words I write to lift you.
Lifes not a time bomb but a lit fuse,
don't stand confused pick and choose,
lace up your boots, lace up your shoes,
it's time to move.
Before it's too late and we all lose.
