'What Was It We Were Thinking Of'

“What Was It We Were Thinking Of”

I watch the news, every day.
It’s always the same,
The Left, Screaming Hate,
Desperately trying to keep the Right
At bay.
Protesters scream for equality,
And smash window with their anger and hate,
They fear change, their rights taken away,
Before it’s too late.
Blood and glass,
You can take change, and shove it
Up your ass.
My daily question is this,
Why not give a New America a chance,
To come together and join hands in this new American dance.
So when you’re spreading fear and displaying mayhem,
And you scream with clinched fists,
To the Lord above,
Ask yourselves one question,
What was it, we were thinking of.

Police officer’s shoot unarmed men of color,
And justify it with fear for life,
And act of valor.
Then they, themselves become targets of senseless acts of evil and hate,
And die in numbers, the reason, we can’t understand,
Or relate.
To protect and serve, their motto sworn,
And another homeless child is born.
Gangs on the streets,
Certain fate, they will meet.
Hate crimes abound,
Swastika’s and white hooded men are still around.
One innocent, defenseless boy is kidnapped, tortured,
And bound.
When you hit your knees tonight,
And pray to the Lord above,
To give peace a chance, and not lose sight.
Ask him for patience, understanding, and love,
Then ask yourselves,
What was it, we were thinking of.

-Kelly.
