No Matter What

The tyrants bare their teeth
In presidential speech
Debate away our lives
And still a country cries

We vote them in
Defaults on a win
The mongers lick their lips
As we make up the whips

And yet a wind of change
Brought us together again

 People fight odds everyday
 No matter what the cost
 Or what was lost
 Self-love is the only way
 No matter what was lost
 Or what the cost

Waters closing in
The end will never begin
Philosophy unfolds
Measured in death tolls
