Did We Surrender

"The path we have chosen for the present is full of hazards, as all paths are. The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender, or submission."

John Kennedy 1917-1963

DID WE SURRENDER?

Once we traveled in a Cadillac named liberty

On the free way of life

We now are creeping steadily

On the overgrown path of strife

It comes down to the actions

Of  the subversive progressive cause

We are divided in our factions

And inundated with oppressive laws

Can we fight our way back to liberty

With the boot of government on our chests?

While we are labeled falsely with bigotry

Which leads to civil unrest

Have the many sleeping Americans

Began to awaken from their slumber?

Or will we remain the picked clean skeleton

Just succumbing to our hunger?

Will our appetite for freedom

Renew our interest to the cause?

Will we continue in the doldrums

Of the regime's stifling progressive laws?

Did we surrender because we are tired

And feel our country is broken?

Are we forever to be mired

Beneath the lies that have been spoken?
