if you want hope.. go vote!?!
i went with an absentee ballot cuz i'm remote
anyway, gettin cold, need a coat
where does this go.. up in smoke?
realign, then i realized what i wrote
defined in the mind, then i was stoked
dropped a line, rewind, re-checked my scope
in kind i know it's all been spoke-n
blend, mix the music, transcend
bend, life goes on, like a new trend
lend a hand, re-extend
it depends
cuz ish's been sacrificed by many (wo)men
