Invisible Bonds

Some think that those who live in the U.S.
Are free to roam from East to West.
They think in America, there are no more slaves,
But in the economy, slavery still raves.
Each day people have things they buy.
On everything, tax makes the price rise.
Never think a price is what it is.
Our leaders take from a man what was his.
And if you don’t pay tax from the mail,
Our greedy government puts you in jail.
More laws are made to make us obey.
This is why I say we are slaves.
I believe that we must fight back.
Put back in this country what it used to not lack.
Middlemen everywhere triple the cost.
Of everything we buy, so our money is lost.
They call America a republic of choice.
Most are proud of our flag, on their houses they hoist.
Some call it democracy, but I must disagree.
It’s the government that rules, solely.
We need to make it how it used to be,
To truly be the land of the free.
Get rid of the tax, and not even a ‘low rate’.
Then maybe people will lose some of their hate.
This country was founded by means of a war.
A war fought to say that we’d be taxed no more!
What has become of our right to choose
Whether or not we’d pay unjust dues?
Since our Fathers really meant for us to be free,
Then it is OUR choice whether taxed we will be.
