Race of the Free
Leather desk
And office aroma
Ironed shirt
And sweaty face
Deadline due
A thick cologne
Some where else
There rings a phone
Corner office
Big pay check
Two young kids
A house bound wife
Find the mirror
See your strife
You studied hard
And when to school
Got up on every Sunday
Fridays too
Here you succeed
But nothing you will truly be
You’ve no love
Not one that’s true
You know not
O what you want
Lust and pleasure?
Loss and pain?
Poor in power
Rich by right
Where did it turn?
From sooth and free
What went sour
It all was all yours
By a elders decree
You worked to death
Your grades, your faith
It always would impress!
No hole is this thing
Not as easy, not as pure
Your trapped in side of a dark fear
And truly it is you
who is ’ought to here
So now meet the face of the race,
The race of the free
The race you now see
When you pulith the trigger nee!
