Too Much Time

Shame

I had a dream the other night I didn’t understand, a figure walking
through the mist, with flintlock in his hand. His clothes were torn and
dirty, as he stood there by my bed, he took off his three-cornered hat,
and speaking low he said:
We fought a revolution to secure our liberty, we wrote the Constitution,
as a shield from tyranny. For future generations, this legacy we gave, in this,
the land of the free
and home of the brave. The freedom we secured for you, we hoped you’d always keep,
but tyrants laboured endlessly while your parents were asleep.Your freedom gone - your courage lost -
you’re no more than a slave,
in this, the land of the free and the home of the brave.
You buy permits to travel, and permits to own a gun, permits to
start a business, or to build a place for one.On land that you believe you own, you pay a yearly rent,
Although you have no voice in choosing how the money’s spent.Your children must attend a school that doesn’t educate,
Your moral values can”t be taught, according to the state.
You read about the current “news” in a very biased press,
You pay a tax you do not owe, to please the IRS.

Your money is no longer made of silver or of gold, you trade your
wealth for paper, so life can be controlled.

You pay for crimes that make our Nation turn from God to shame,

You’ve taken Satan’s barcode number, as you’ve traded in your name.

You’ve given government control to those who do you harm, so they can
padlock churches, and steal the family farm. And keep our country deep
in debt, put men of God in jail, harass your fellow countryman while
corrupt Masonic courts prevail.

Your public servants don”t uphold the solemn oath they”re sworn, your
daughters visit doctors so children won”t be born.

Your leaders ship artillery and guns to foreign shores,
And send your sons to slaughter, fighting other people”s wars.
Can you regain your Freedom for which we fought and died?
Or don”t you have the courage, or the faith to stand with pride?

Are there no more values for which you”ll fight to save?
Or do you wish your children live in fear and be a slave?
Sons of the Republic arise and take a stand!

Defend the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land!
Preserve our Republic, and each God-given right! And pray to God
to keep the torch of freedom burning bright!

As I awoke he vanished, in the mist from whence he came, his words
were true, we are not free, and we have ourselves to blame.

For even now as tyrants trample each God-given right, we only
watch and tremble — too afraid to stand and fight.

If he stood by your bedside in a dream while you”re asleep,

And wonder what remains of your right he fought to keep.

What would be your answer if he called out from the grave?

Is this still the land of the free and home of the brave?

Poem

                                            A SOLDIERS BOOTS

They just sit their by the door, reminding her of many days that came before.

Thats his favorite pair he allways wore, he would were them dancing and riding or just going to the store. He even wore them to their wedding just sixteen months before.

They just sit their by the door.

The leather's cracked and the soles are wore, The spurs have rusted, They will spin no more.

She sits and stares and wonders what it was all for, Why those pair of boots have to sit their by the door.

As spider webs criss cross and make their way to the floor and some of the mud has crumbled its scatterd by the door.

She crys every time she sweeps the floor, for this young ladys heart is tore.

She wakes from her dreams at night and screams from her core, She curse's those boots by the door.

                  Her cowboy wont be comming home from the war.

                         with a tear written by Concrete Hillbilly
