STATE OF EMERGENCY

Hey, Mr. President
We, the people, demand your attention
You’ve been too busy trying to fix a world
That didn’t ask for your fixing
There’s a war here in America
Best described as an invasion
US troops guard foreign borders
Who protects the borders of our nation?
 
The state of the union
Is a state of emergency
 
Hey, Mr. President
It’s your constitutional duty
To halt the invasion
Penetrating our national security
These invaders don’t come to this country
In search of the American Dream
They come to leech off the government
And our flawed system helps them succeed
 
The threat is not across the ocean
The infiltrators are not in uniform
Our problems and the solutions
Lie within systematic reform
America needs to back up her words with actions
When she says, ‘Don’t tread on me”
She must show she means, DON’T TREAD ON ME!
