"You Killed Them"

I called upon you to give me strength,
And even the strength of Hercules or Samson
or even the Incredible Hulk
couldn’t dry my eyes long enough to see clearly,
Nearly crossing the finish line
blind in enough time to find,
Out why you killed them.
Some say it's because of the disservice he’s done
to the entire world,
Some say his sons had it coming.
Coming into a new era
with cannon fire substituted for fireworks,
And bomb threats sent by children carrying grenades,
Ready to explode onto scenes
that seem to stare into space
aimlessly,
Until one day,
I woke up in a rage,
Eyes green with anger,
Pissed off from lift off since you dipped off,
Into my wells,
Swelling thunderous storms
because you killed them both.
If I had to be the one to identify the bodies,
I would first cry out to GOD
and ask of his or her forgiveness
for what I am about to do,
Whether my future actions agree with you or not,
You say the American people are completely innocent.
I beg to differ.
You sit idly by with your Internet access,
Satellite TV,
Microwave ovens,
High-end automobiles,
Multi-level homes,
Remote controls,
Cellular phones,
Running water and electricity,
thinking your financial class gives you the right
to teach economics to the rest of the world.
Worlds turned inside out,
I see you for what you truly are,
A wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Ting passed me the L cause my highs you keep blowin,
Maurice gave me the stealth to stay invisible
while I’m flowin,
I have seen your anti-war protests on CNN,
I see how much damage
can actually be done with a pen,
Your status has everything to do with
the skin you are wearin,
But evidently it has no bearing
on who you are swearing,
Into presidential office,
2 sons still stare at me from coffins,
So I hope you are aware of the repercussions, America.
I see your actions haven’t changed
since slavery at the start,
We are wed now,
Till death do us part?
