Moral Decay
Grinding, striving
Skin of teeth surviving
Death slowly arriving
As big brother takes and takes
More souls he rapes
Like picking grapes
Pay the man or lose
No wonder there's booze
To numb the choices we choose .
Empires built for nought
Morality now an afterthought
Politicians sold and bought
Futures forged on broken trust
Election lies , watch countries bust
As we wait our turn
To rust in the dust.
