Get me out of this place * Spoken Word*

Get me out of this place

where the politicians make haste

transforming the poor into the waste,d

where abandoned children are forced to weather the weather

but raise hell if Mr suit, tie wearing whoever doesn't have shelter

Get me out of this place

where I'm called a disgrace

if I don't take part in their dictatorship race

and I'm supposed to keep pace

When I can't even afford gas to go plead my case

I want decisions made with the heart not the wallet

finally walk on something solid

I wont stop till we got it

I want to standardize education

make free health-care our new legislation

Hospitals except every patient

from the CEO tycoon to the forgotten Haitian

finally change our societies situation

Lift us all to a new destination

I'm talking about restoration

Get me out of this place

where the homeless are faceless

but there forced to face this

And all I can offer are these words hoping you embrace this

ponder on the meaning a minute before you erase this

because if we don't speak up then there left to the tasteless

We could all stand together from the Evangelist to the sadist

do something to make our forefathers proud and the spirits that await us

Get me out of this place

where folks who mold young minds

get repaid with mere dimes

but estates and luscious pines

to those who comment white collar crimes

its time to change the times
