Patti Jo Roth-Edwards - Power And Pride: The Drones Lyrics
The line is drawn, the die is castThis isn't the first war, but it may be the lastShouldn't it take a vote to decideTo kill us all for power and pride.The president drew a line in the sandThe drones crossed the sky and scorched the landTheir children cried in spite of the planThey are just like us - now we must standA glowing white light could shoot across our skyAll we love could dieThe torture and prison that are all deniedBy madmen for power and prideThey say it's for me, but I said "No!"Boots on the ground and more and more dronesBlood and sand and broken bonesBroken hearts - sad lost souls.A glowing white light from across the skyTo humble a leader sick with prideWho seeks to concur when we want peaceWe shout and march, demand it all ceaseAll we hold dear and all we call homeMay be blown to hell by a single droneThat is not Ours but made by usI kneel and pray and swear and cussThis must stop today while it still canSave us all from this insane plan,The winds of peace can blow the sandAnd erase the president's lineBefore the drones light up my skyIf we do survive...Do you want to survive?Do you want to survive with so little else alive?
