The Beauty of Lost Ages
Welcome to my life
Under God I once stood
Now under mountains of strife
I will crack like brittle wood
My eagle once promised liberty
Now money does instead
As leaders preach in deceitful clarity
My children get covered in red
The boys who paid for me
Like innocence, are forgotten
Now I can't fail to foresee
The success of the rotten
The dream I created
That was once milk and honey
Is dead to those who medicated
Their lives with money
The sky will remain blue
But I will be gone
Loyal to those who lie in truths
My people must fix what's wrong
Strong still I may be
But within mistruth rages
And all you chose to see
Is the beauty of lost ages
