Snakes In The Garden

Earthquakes, hurricanes, and tsunamis couldn't pull up to roots or put the roots to sleep, extreme heat only burn the leaves on the tree, "Who are we?" Since these snakes has over taking the garden and ran us into the cotton fields, our Royal state has yield behind broken shields, as we fight for what we need to replant the seeds, provoked by their aggression that turned into an obsession that's tearing us apart, with a strange, deranged expression of what's in our hearts, it's the question of obsession that drawn to our own reflection, as we lost our direction to the seeds of oppression that has fallen and ripen with aggression that's up rooting the trees in the garden of Eden...now it's eat or be eaten, by these snakes that has bruised and beaten us, as our eyes are filled with dead men's dirt, and our minds are filled with dust, why we sit with a deep thrust, unjust, because of distrust... betrayed by the thoughts that was once us, now we live in a world of disgust, that crush our pride into dust and trample down rebellious lust as it hold thee back on this hollow lands where freedom is unjust...now we are trees without roots that bear rotten fruits, that is raised under years of wicked institutes in their Sunday suits, on their knees licking these corporate boots because we have forgotten our earthly roots, as the rain come down in endless sheets of thunder, lightning bolts split our trees down to their roots, in the shadows of the Astrodome with a hurricane coming on strong, these snakes are feathering their nests while they're rallying their troops, eroding the souls of America to pray to the heavens, why they rule the world like Zeus, as their snakes run loose in the garden...
