"Whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends [i.e., securing inherent and inalienable rights, with powers derived from the consent of the governed], it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness." --Thomas Jefferson: Declaration of Independence, 1776. ME 1:29, Papers 1:315
I am not a George Washington
I'm certainly no Paul Revere
But seeing how our government is
I say we have a whole lot to fear
WE THE PEOPLE aren't in control
That's not how it's supposed to be
Here and now I pledge to change that
I fight for the future's liberty
I won't be doing this for me
For I am getting old and gray
For our children and grandchildren
This Nation under God I pray
It's their future that is at risk
And years ago I swore an oath
To fight injustice everywhere
Yes, foreign and domestic, both!
Our legislature doesn't care
Of their sworn duties they are slack
Time to practice our Constitution
Let's take our America back
This nation does not belong to them
It's WE THE PEOPLE that are the law
They didn't believe we'd rise again
That error will be their fatal flaw
Yet I cannot do this alone
Only a fool would think that way!
So, who will stand with me and fight
Who's ready to swear an oath today?
Representation today's a lie
We see it every day of the week The boat that we're on is sinking fast
It's time to be strong and fix the leak
Our founding fathers did it before
A Boston tea party by the sea
Now is the time, we must do it again
WE THE PEOPLE are meant to live free!
Like the Pheonix we'll rise again
Like the rattlesnake we will bite
We're still one nation under God
'Tis God that champions this fight
I will fight for the right to be a Christian without being pressured to accept a bunch of secular nonsense like making our kids buy birth control or telling me I have to accept a homosexual marriage. If it is against Biblical principles I will fight on the side of my Lord.
I will fight for the USA to continue as "One nation under God" to the very end.

I will fight for the USA to continue as "One nation under God" to the very end.
Amen my friend!
