    There is a war being fought overseas
    there is a war being fought on our soil
    there will never be peace with a hate filled leader
    not as long as there is oil

    and just what do the wealthy whites know?
    sure they know how to start a war
    but they send our young soldiers to die alone
    nobody quite certain what for

    Corruption and lies is all i see
    knowing my government failed me
    and the minds of innocent permanently scarred
    cursed and tortured on helplessly

    Its our human gene of love and war
    fighting until earth be gone
    and all this power trip dont mean a thing
    No war has ever been won.

    The only thing that I feel is missing, is hope. The poem is disparaging and doesn't necessarily incite hope into the readers. Nothing changes without hope... despair is never enough to inspire.
