The Patriot's Resolve

"The problem of power is how to achieve its responsible use rather than its irresponsible and indulgent use...of how to get men of power to live for the public rather than off the public." RFK

The Patriot's Resolve

We put them in power to act on our behalf

But some took that power as a throne

Laws were enacted for political gain

As government became overblown

It now is a kingdom for the man who broke his promises

And led so many to believe he cared

His reach has led beyond what is safe for our Republic

Those of us who see it are rightfully scared

The self indulgent politicians took the reins

And took their shadowy steed right to the brink

Now it is time for patriots to take their stand

Or look away as our country starts to sink

Our apathy let them in to defile our Constitution

It didn't just take a minute for this situation to evolve

But it's not said and done as long as We the People have our say

And as long as there remains a patriot's resolve
