The Clock is Ticking

The Clock is ticking
______________________________
Tick tock, tick tock
The clock is ticking
Tick tock, tick tock
The clock is ticking
Our eyes, they are not focus
We see only the distractions
Tick tock, tick tock
The time is running out
What we had, will be gone
It just takes a wave of the hand
Some Stormtroopers to knock you around
Tick tock, that clock is running out of time
Your freedom, my freedom gone in a flash
Clenched fist, stand up resist
Our time is running out,
The Constitution that we cherish is being trashed
By those who hold the power, they use our Constitution as a weapon on us
Those who see only the people in power
Local, state and federal
Do not see those who pull the strings
A corruption fills the veins of those who took an oath
Democracies fall, when the people have little voice
Tick tock, time is running out!
