A Country In Denial (Revised)





The bullet or the ballot
The sword or the pen

Rage and oppression
Centuries of sin

Self-righteous sermons
Leaders Of lies

Unquenchable fire
Cities baptized 

Harvest destroyers
ill-gotten gain

Reap and
sow
While casting blame

Faith formed by fiction,
bigotry, and weapons

The evolution
of blind acceptance

So far away
but yet so close

How can we heal
if we haven't been diagnosed

A cancer metastasized
A community on trial

A creed delegitimized

A country in denial
