Operation Iraqi Freedom

We’ve been at war since I can remember 
It didn’t just begin that fateful September
It’s been 5 years since we attacked Iraq
And now I’m wondering if we’ll ever come back

We went there for a reason that doesn’t stand true
Really just treason a military cue
There was only a few who didn’t support the war
Now our pockets are draining and we’re looking for a door, out.

Of operation Iraqi freedom
We’ve tilled the land but we still got to seed’em
Maybe that’s just what they want us to believe,
That we’re freedom fighters instead of freedom thieves.
There is blood on the ground and nothing can grow,
Is this war gonna end it’s going so slow.

We’re beating around the Bush, no pun intended.
What will happen when china wants the money that was lended.
Our morals were bended, extended for oil or whatever
If McCain wins we’re gonna be in debt forever.

It doesn’t matter who controls the capital hill 
Does anybody have the heart along with the will?
To pull us out of the dark, instead of tearing us apart
The invasion of other nation doesn’t make sense
We’re still looking through manifest destiny lens

We’ve been at war since I can remember 
It didn’t just begin that fateful September
It’s been 5 years since we attacked Iraq
And now I’m wondering if we’ll ever come back.

Talked about McCain but they’re all confused
Trust me Hilary and Obama should not be excused
It doesn’t matter if we win or we loose
The people in Iraq will still be abused.

If you ask me this war we have already lost 
The possible gain has exceeded the cost


We’re trying to control what can’t be controlled
You have to change for yourself, you can’t be told.
We’re like a bad gambler, don’t know when to fold.
Just like the conquistadors from the days of old,
We’re destroying other nations in search of gold.
By being so bold we are loosing our hold.

Are these candidates really gonna stand behind their word
Considering the track record that would be absurd.
They tell us to be heard, go out and vote,
But all they do is shove it down our throats.

It didn’t just begin that fateful September 
We’ve been at war since I can remember 

We’re way too deep for just evolution 
We need to move our feet, start a revolution
It’s the only solution, to end this era 
Of Political, Environmental & social pollution.
