I Abstain


I abstain!
Summon my pride? What pride lies behind blinkered eyes?
Your vigilance is shit!
"The lads together" - you'll fall!
Smug complacency, notions of reserving the right to think with your =
fists
I abstain from this mundane apathy
Committed to "all for red, white and blue" in effect you're fighting =
for what's really fighting you
"Grit those teeth, push out those chests" tears only for the flag
Always the brave patriot as you slip to second class
But you stand steadyfast?
People are not subjects, why should the few get more respect?
Open your eyes!
Imperialism feeds off you, not patrons but patronized
Open your eyes!
They're shaping you - you're trapped with "pomp and circumstance"
Lose your discretion
Soon, you'll not fall from grace endorse their rhetoric you fade, =
they prosper
They're shaping you - you're trapped with "pomp and circumstance"
Lose your discretion
Soon, you'll not fall from grace endorse their rhetoric you fade, =
they prosper
I abstain!
Don't be a colonial slave
Don't substantiate the act
